hi Avery
once the lockdown is over and you walk in this area again would you take a mattock and remove them? ST is a Weed of National Significance and one weed that the Parks Service would take care of. Unfortunately, the contractors finished ST control in the area for this season (I think) but you could still send a link to Canberra Nature Park North rangers using the generic email address cnpn@act.gov.au. Also please don't forget to take a record of the 100s Verbascum rosettes you were talking about last monday.

OK will borrow a mattock for those guys, and have uploaded the verbascum rosettes. I also uploaded a sheep sighting ... will that cause the nearby leaseholder to get notified to collect them or should I include that in a cnpn email?

yes; please let cnpn rangers know that a sheep got lost in the reserve; they have the contacts of leaseholders adjoining reserves. many thanks Avery.
