We are delighted to bring you this research report update from 2023 Roy and Marjory Edwards Scholarship recipient (over 3 years), Beth Treglown, identifying environmental drivers that destabilise ecological communities of temperate wetlands.

Nature means the world to us. It's in our name. It's intrinsic to everything we do. So we are proud to be part of this year's Nature Festival, both as a Festival Partner and involved with a number of events.

Nature Festival is a two week celebration of our love of nature in South Australia, and from 28 September to 13 October 2024, and offers hundreds of events for all ages, full of creative ways to connect with nature and each other.

Nature Foundation is delighted to share a progress update on our goal to double our impact to 1 million hectares protected by 2030, with the recent acquisition of another nature reserve, Mongolurring, in northeast South Australia, near Mount Bryan.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of our recent Conservation Conversations. Your presence and participation were invaluable. If you were unable to attend or watch live online, you can catch up on the evening's conversations via the recording below.

A bird survey was recently conducted on Hiltaba Nature Reserve by a team from Birds SA (many of whom are also Nature Foundation members). Over the four days around 60 species were recorded although bird numbers were a little down on last year, likely reflecting the dry conditions earlier in the year and also the cold weather experienced during the survey.
