Summary

Love the Little Bay Pond birding hut? We're looking for volunteers to trim the mangroves that are blocking the view!

Detailed description

Fast-growing mangroves have obstructed the view of the Little Bay Pond (Belair) birding hut, and we're looking for an adult with experience and a chainsaw to help us trim them down! Unfortunately, we do not have specified funding for this maintenance, and these white mangroves grow very quickly.


You'll provide:

  • Chainsaw or another portable sawing machine
  • Evidence that you are over 18 years old
  • Your invaluable help in trimming the mangroves!


We'll provide:

  • Manual clippers
  • Refreshments
  • Manual assistance
  • Gloves and trash bags


Just let us know some times when you're available, and we'll find a time when our team can work with your schedule. Email [email protected] with your availability.


The platform is regularly used by the public, school groups, and bird enthusiasts. Thank you for helping us preserve the value of this eco-tourism site!
