Bold Park Family Nocturnal Tour

Join the Friends of Bold Park Bushland for an after-dark guided walk searching for some of the nocturnal animals that live in Bold Park.

Many of Australia’s native animals are nocturnal, so evenings are a great time to look for small creatures as they emerge from their daytime hiding spots. Listen carefully to hear quendas digging and hopping amongst the bushes.

Study tree trunks to see geckoes poking out from under pieces of loose bark. Look up and you may see bats darting above.

Watch out for the webs of orb-weaver spiders and use your torch to spot the twinkling eyes of wolf spiders as they emerge from their underground burrows. With a little luck, we might spot a tawny frogmouth or boobook owl quietly watching from the trees or a brushtail possum munching on some leaves.

On rainy nights, you might even hear the elusive turtle frogs. These are just some of the amazing wild animals that we'll hope to see during this exploration of the bushland! Please note that this is a ticketed event with a limited number of places available.

All attendees, including children over 4 years of age, must have a ticket. Children 4 years and under are free, but the late finish time means it may not be suitable for very young children.

This event is supported by a Town of Cambridge Community Organisation Support Grant.
