My name is Amy, I'm 28 years old and a third-year environmental science student at Charles Sturt University, Thurgoona campus. My passions lay in sustainable development, scientific communication and in a niche avian ecology.
These are sightings from the local area from days spent volunteering, weekend bird walks and regular spotlighting walks.
