Mr Sandy Eveleigh from Visual Hope Photography took these great photos of birds in flight over the Wyreema Wetlands recently. Sandy was inspired to go and drive past the Wyreema Wetlands, after being informed about it's plight on <a href="http://wyreemawetlands.blogspot.com.au/2016/05/wyreema-wetlands-featured-on-7-local.html" target="_blank">Channel 7 News</a> during the week. These great photos were taken from the road and Sandy was so impressed with the species that he could see from the road, that he has arranged to be inducted so he can visit the site to bird-watch in the near future.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sandy's Bird List from the short time he visited the perimeter of Wyreema Wetlands is as follows:</div>
<div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Black-Shoulder Kite</li>
<li>Eastern Great Egret</li>
<li>White-Necked Heron</li>
<li>Willy Wagtail</li>
<li>Magpie-lark</li>
<li>Welcome Swallow</li>
<li>Little Pied Cormorant</li>
<li>Pacific Black Duck</li>
<li>Pink-eared Duck</li>
<li>Australasian Darter</li>
</ul>
<div>

Four of the more unusual species are shown below. Black Falcons and Yellow-throated Miners are resident in the area. Freckled Duck and Black-tailed Native-hens were drought refugees, which is why artificial wetlands are so important for our wildlife. <br />

Chris Cameron visited the Wyreema Wetlands this morning and came away with some great sightings including a Hoary-headed Grebe and Australasian Grebe in a great comparison shot together. Golden-headed Cisticolas were also in the grass around the ponds. Pink-eared Ducks could be seen in the distance of some of the ponds. Thank-you Chris for sharing your sightings and photographs of your visit to this magnificent bird habitat in Wyreema.<br />

<b><br></b>
<b>WASTELAND OR WETLANDS? </b><br>
<br>
This was the topic of discussion, led by Mick Atzeni, guest speaker at tonight's branch meeting of the Wildlife Preservation Society of Qld - Toowoomba, held at Amaroo Environmental Education Centre at Kleinton.<br>
<br>
Mick spoke about all of the aspects of how the "Wyreema Wetlands" came to be and about the current situation facing the unique birding habitat, as the waste water ponds are due to be decommissioned shortly. Currently the Wyreema site is the only drought refuge of it's type in the Toowoomba Region, and is a refuge to birdlife not commonly observed in the Toowoomba region, including the Australian Spotted Crake and Pink-eared Duck to name a few. <br>
<br>
The potentials for the future of this unique bio-diverse site are endless, but only if water input is maintained at the site to ensure the longevity of this diverse birding habitat.<br>
<br>
The presentation by Mick Atzeni was well received by members of WPSQ Toowoomba and members of the public who attended the event, and everyone was in agreement, that such a location deserves saving and maintaining for the future of these bird species, and for the many options the location offers for local eco-tourism options in the future.<br>

<br />
On Saturday 16th January, Judith Hoyle from Bird Life Southern Queensland attended an onsite induction and tour of the Wyreema Water Treatment Plant, co-ordinated by Mick Atzeni from the Toowoomba Bird Observers Club. Other induction attendees included Judi Gray - President of Wildlife Preservation Society Toowoomba Branch, Deborah Metters from South East Queensland Catchments and representatives from the Toowoomba Field Naturalists Club. Despite wet overcast weather on the day, a large bird list was still compiled, including Pink Eared Ducks and Plum-headed Finches, which are usually rare to be seen in this part of the darling downs region. Every one in attendance agreed with Mick’s vision for the Wyreema Wetlands location, the options available, and the compromises that may have to be considered to ensure the habitat’s longevity.<br />
