SAD time of year

At this time of year we get lots of SAD (Sudden Autumn Death) amongst our banksias ...
Following on from last week's meeting we decided to collect some Dryandra sessilis seeds to distribute over the asbestos-laden barrens to keep people out of that area and provide food for Carnaby's.
We used the seed collecting technique taught to us by Tony Scalzo from Kings Park - spreading plastic onto the ground and shaking the tree.
Amongst the seeds we found a few beetles ... and other fauna!
