Beckett Park Indigenous Flora Reserve - a video by Ernie Althoff and John Campbell

This grassy woodland area in suburban Balwyn is adjacent to Maranoa Botanic Gardens. See our 2022 Maranoa video at: https://youtu.be/BmK9VzG2Cog

Beckett Park has remnant indigenous vegetation, mainly medium-sized eucalypts, with some spring flowering orchids. Both parks are visited by the relatively few species of native birds that have adapted to this type of postcolonial habitat. As you can hear, some are thriving.
