It is tucked in behind Rosebud, Mel 169, is tiny but it got Ramsar listing as it is a refuge for waterbirds. There has been huge pressure to encroach on it with housing, and a valiant fight by local environmentalists to maintain its integrity. I shall go because the link shows that they have garnered support from various bodies, including Moonlit Sanctuary, a private wildlife sanctuary in Pearcedale/Mornington I had not heard of. Cheers Daphne PS I hope the link forwards. I know attachments don’t. ———- Forwarded message ———- From: *jess durrant via CommunityRun* <jessicadurrant1983@gmail.com jessicadurrant1983@gmail.com>> Date: Mon, Jan 20, 2014 at 9:40 AM Subject: World Wetland Day Event To: dkhards@gmail.com dkhards@gmail.com> * *Hello to all the supporters of the Tootgarook swamp campaign, Just a quick email to let you know about an upcoming event: *World Wetland Day Event.* World Wetland Day, February 2nd, is approaching and to celebrate the day and the role that Tootgarook Swamp plays as an important wetland, some wetland themed activites has been organised for the community.
