Nocturnal Nature Safari - Greener Wilder West (multiple dates)

Saturday January 21 to Friday February 10

Plough and Harrow, Western Sydney Parklands, Abbotsbury

Come to the Greener Wilder West and join Tom and his team from Hooked on Nature on a 1.5hr guided adventure through Plough and Harrow.

Dusk is a wonderful time to spot animals in the Australian bush. The Park is home to a variety of nocturnal creatures - from brushtail possums, to microbats, tawny frogmouths, and grey-headed flying-foxes. Experience the wonderful atmosphere when one set of park inhabitants go to sleep and the others wake up! 

Program dates:

  • Saturday 21 January: 7:45 pm – 9:15 pm

  • Saturday 4 February: 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm
  • Friday 10 February: 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm
