What's On in Melbourne

To mark David Attenborough's 100th birthday year, join ecologist Dr Jacinta Humphrey for a guided walk along the Elwood Canal. Elster Creek doesn't have the reputation of Melbourne's more celebrated waterways but look closer and it's teeming with life: over 40 bird species, native frogs, short-finned eels making extraordinary ocean migrations, and plants doing quiet ecological work along the canal edges. This walk is a chance to see that biodiversity firsthand and to understand how the choices we make every day in Glen Eira flow directly downstream to this creek and out into Port Phillip Bay. Using the iNaturalist app, participants will photograph and identify species along the route, contributing real observations to the Elster Creek biodiversity record. Every sighting logged becomes part of a living dataset for the corridor. Jacinta will guide identifications and share her expertise in native wildlife in residential and urban environments. This early morning timeslot is prime for birdwatching and amateur wildlife enthusiasts alike.
