Accompanied by Robyn Kesby, a Ranger with NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service, U3A members spent a pleasant morning walking in the unique natural wetland system that is Panboola. Robyn who is a keen bird watcher explained the diverse habitats found in Panboola attract a wide range of birds. Members learnt about the beginnings of the project, as they explored the bird sanctuary, the old Pambula racecourse and the salt marsh estuary of the Pambula River. The project initially Government funded, now relies solely on donations. The walk was followed by a delightful picnic lunch within the confines of the bird sanctuary.
