Petrea volubilis With the loveliness of a wisteria, often called Queen's Wreath Vine - blossoms with billowing clouds of cascading purple flowers. Petrea volubilis is a species of plant in the family Verbenaceae, native to tropical America. The species is an evergreen flowering vine. It is grown as an ornamental plants, valued especially for its display of violet flowers. The flowers emerge from bracts. Flowering across the Range in November.

The Wonga Pigeon, or Wonga Wonga, is a large, plump,

ground dwelling pigeon with a small head, short, broad wings and

a long tail. It is mainly grey above, with a pale face, a distinctive

white V on the breast and white lower parts which are boldly

marked with black brown crescents and wedges. The white

necklace is very distinctive.

The eyes are dark red brown with a pink eye ring and black lores

(area between the bill and the eye) and the bill, feet and legs are

deep pink to red.

Often sighted along the Range under bushes. Above are the Australian king parrot dropping seeds as they eat. The wonga is rewarded.

Very tall and straight

black butts observed in

the Mapleton Forest.

All proceeds go to the Mapleton State School P&C. All your donations would be gratefully received and will go towards resources for our school and students.

THANK YOU to residents who had forwarded images to date.

We understand more are expected.

Please note, the waterlilies are just coming back into flower.

It is the water temperature that influences growth and hence the

flowering so be patient, they will appear again in the near future.
