Camera trap survey
We recently placed a camera trap at a hole under a fence that wildlife use as an access point for a shelter belt of trees near the Newholme Homestead. We were wanting to see if swamp wallabies were moving away from the forest on the mountain, and out into the pastures, and using the shelter belts. Here are some of the results of the 8-day survey.

We photographed several eastern grey kangaroos - the most common macropod species at Newholme

Another common species on Newholme, the echidna, wandered through the fence on on night
The red fox, a common introduced species, was photographed on a number of occasions.
