Help improve habitat for frogs, insects and other wildlife at Tulip St Reserve next to the Sandringham Family Leisure Centre.

Bayside is blessed with green space but has few wetlands. The pond at the Reserve is one of the few places in Bayside where frogs can be found. FoNW have been monitoring frogs in the pond for the Melbourne Water Frog Census for over 20 years. We regularly find three species of frogs and many invertebrates. A Buff-banded Rail, a shy water bird, was seen here last year, so we think our members are making a difference.

You can help! Join Friends of Native Wildlife and Friends of Tulip St Reserve to dig in a variety of plants to improve habitat for the frogs, insects and birds.

Enjoy this local hidden gem of Bayside. Unwind and contemplate. Promote and preserve this peaceful and valuable local bushland setting.

Home to four frog species, ducks and water birds, numerous waterbugs and after dusk out come the moths, bugs and our delightful microbats, all surrounded by native bush.

Currently Friends of Native Wildlife (FoNW) host regular planting and weeding days, along with regular frog surveys being submitted to Melbourne Water for nearly twenty years.
