Mt Druitt Wildlife

[steve6610]

haha zulu, i lived in mt druitt for about 4 months in 2001, haha, i never saw anything that even looked like it was alive, most of the natives looked past it to me, hehe, couldn't wait to get back to qld, sorry zulu, lol,

but one good thing was if you wanted to go shopping at 2am you could, haha........... why i have no idea, but you could,

you knew when pension day was, the streets were full and the servo's upped the fuel price by 10 cents, lol,

No offence ponybug but out off all the places to go to in Sydney after leaving QLD you choose Mt Druitt??????? You deserved to be stuck there.

At least your free now.

thanks simone, bloody took me 4 months to escape, did i get a shock when i arrived, hehe, i did try to get her to move, but she wouldn't, lol, so i did, haha, without her,

but to be honest it was a great holiday, free rent, my own tour guide, what more could you want, hehe, just the location was a bit wrong, i was a country boy, i didn't know what mt druitt stood for, hehe,

yes, i'm free, i didn't learn though, a few months later i went to nz, hell took me 3 months to escape from there also, haha,

(sorry to all nz'ers, it was very nice there) like to go back one day soon, but my druitt, NO WAY.......

[zulu]

has anyone ever seen any frogs at nurragingy reserve? i'm always walking the dog thru there and trying to spot some in that new wetland area they've built (that's not really wet at the mo)

I went there for a picnic last year and saw several black snakes and i could hear the frogs croaking,presume what i heard was lymnodastes peroni or whatever they are called these days,the striped marsh frogs.

Pmsl HaHa ,yeh things are not that bad ponybug,we got citizens like Mark Geyer and stuff and .........well it escapes me at the moment but ime sure we got celebritys,just cant think of any at the moment.

 

[Nephrurus]

there is a fair bit of bushy parkland in that area though, i have seen possums and snakes down there when i used to ride my mountain bike around there as a teenager.
and the adi site isn't far from mt druitt too bad they clearing a whole lot of it

Yeh they are ruining the ADI site,POX on the federal govt,the state govt and Penrith council,conservation is a just a facade with government departments.

You guys live so close to the ADI site and you don't even know whats happening to it!

900 hectares is being fenced, weeds removed and preserved as regional park. The remaining 600 hectares is being developed. The developed areas are areas where there was previously old Aust. Defence buildings and infrastructure. Most of this info is widely available on the net. the rest can be gathered by talking to the sales office.

 

[salebrosus]

No chance of the sale office being biased??????????

Ive read what i could neph,the environmental impact statements LOL those that are lodged with penrith council,they havent tryed particularly hard,thought it was an all round poor effort and showed a disregard for genuinine conservation objectives in the long term.Wouldnt put too much in the fencing idea,it will be similar to nurringingy with fees and camping grounds etc etc

 

[Jakee]

I live about 10 mins away from Mt Druitt and ive never ever seen any frogs there.
where abouts did you see it.

[atrax]

I know there are at least 5 species of frogs at Werrington. I reckon you'd find all of them somewhere in the Druitt.

 

[zulu]

re Mt

Mt Druitt is vertually suurounded by areas of cumberland plains bushland corridors made up of farms,parks etc no shortage of frogs,plenty of insect eating bats,flying foxs and a surprisingly large number of grey kangaroos.Ime talkig about areas outside of the ADI site ive never beewn on the land that nephurus was talking about which is largely fenced off.
