User's notes
First photo (top) female Nancy with swelling ovaries and (bottom) male. The 3rd photo shows an area which FoMM sprayed on the 3rd of August to treat Paterson's Curse, thistles and Sow thistles (see Field Maps Treated Weeds 2026/27) - excellent timing. Many dead trees (Eucalyptus sp. and Exocarpos ), cut stumps uphill of the cleared area and surprisingly little recruitment - perhaps the result of rabbit browsing or weed competition or both.
