Castledowns Wetland Working Bee, Dipton

26 January 2025

Hi Wetlanders,

Happy New Year to you and may 2025 be a good year for you all

It has been a challenging season with rain and more rain and then an enormous surge in growth so we need to get back into the jungle and see what we can find re the tracks the plants, and the traps.

Volunteer day is Sunday, 26 January and we will be leaving Invercargill at 9am arriving at the Wetland at 10 . It would be great to have helpers. Please let me know if you are able to come.

Kind regards, Ann Irving, Phone 027 6569319

A Sanctuary of Biodiversity and Natural Beauty - Nestled in the serene landscapes of Southland, New Zealand, Castledowns Wetland Dipton is a hidden gem that offers a unique glimpse into the region’s rich biodiversity and natural beauty. This wetland serves as a vital ecological habitat, supporting a myriad of plant and animal species while providing numerous benefits to the environment and the local community.

A tranquil spot, except when there's a working bee in progress! Still time for a quiet moment though.
