Cute koala features on catchment calendar cover

Monday 30 November, 2020
The 2021 Goulburn Broken Catchment Calendar is now available, featuring a stunning cover photograph of a dozing koala taken by Yarck’s Shellie Drysdale.

Goulburn Broken CMA’s Janice Mentiplay-Smith said around 350 entries showcasing the Goulburn Broken catchment’s natural values were received this year.

“From these entries 25 photographs of the region’s plants, animals and landscapes, showing why our catchment is a such a beautiful place to live, were selected for the calendar,” she said.

“The calendar is highly popular with the community and has become a real tradition. It is a fantastic way for people to use their photography skills and for others to learn about the Goulburn Broken catchment’s native species and natural places. This year’s calendar focuses on the native flora and fauna of the grey box woodlands.”

If you would like to receive a copy of the calendar, please email janicem@gbcma.vic.gov.au with your name and postal address.

The calendar photo competition is run annually - if you have any images of the catchment’s native plants, animals, insects or places you think would be suitable for the next year’s calendar email them to janicem@gbcma.vic.gov.au by August 20, 2021. Photos must be between 2-10MB and in landscape format (10MB limit per email). Please include your name and address in the email and include a subject line (please no discs or USBs).

This project is supported by the Goulburn Broken CMA and the Conservation Management Networks through funding from the Australian Government’s National Landcare Program and the Moira Shire and Greater Shepparton City councils.
