NORTH COAST MYNA NETWORK MEETING 6/06/2012

Laura, Pam and I went down to this get together at the Gladstone Heritage Hotel (near Kempsey). Originally it was planned as a Bar-b-que in a nearby park but thankfully it was moved to the hotel when the weather turned bad.
It was attended by the project officers from the three groups representing the areas from Clarence Valley to Port Macquarie and Kempsey. They all gave brief reports on their tactics, progress and results. Also present were several project managers, representatives from the CMA, NPWS and Landcare together with coordinators and volunteers mainly from the local area.
It was pleasing to hear how things are going in the other areas and to see that the CVCIA's program is good shape. We were also able to discuss current trends, trapping tactics and trap building with other like minded people. All in all it was worth the time and travel.
Cheers Kevin
