In May 2018, hundreds of Tasmanians took part in the first ever Where Where Wedgie! survey – in the hope of learning how our raptor populations are tracking (and also white cockatoos). To prepare, schools students spent a month of Expedition Class learning all about raptors.

Be in your seat by 5 pm for a series of short talks from the incredible NatureTrackers team on what Where Where Wedgie! has achieved. Participants young & old share their stories. Come and chat to them during the open Expo sessions before and afterwards.  Explore the findings, and share ideas on how to build on these for future years.  FREE – more details & registration
