YEAR Two students from Yakamia Primary School recently braved the chilly weather to go spotlighting in the Mt Clarence bush reserve to look for night animals.
Department of Environment and Conservation Land For Wildlife Officer Sylvia Leighton said each group had success in sighting nocturnal animals.
These included two brush-tailed possums, six western ring-tailed possums, motorbike frogs, quacking frogs, lots of tadpoles, wolf spiders, orb weaver spiders, two nesting galahs and one feral cat.
Group leaders who volunteered their time were from DEC, Albany Bushcarer’s Association, Albany Community Environment Centre and Greening Australia.
