Bimblebox 153 birds

Some years ago, I was asked to write a poem for the Bimblebox 153 Birds exhibition.  The exhibition, which includes music, poetry and artwork, has been touring the country with the aim of engaging, educating and engendering people’s connection with Bimblebox; to take the Bimblebox Nature Refuge beyond the fence-line and bring an experience of it to people throughout Australia; to build an understanding of the value of natural environments like Bimblebox; to engage in conversations around climate change, coal mining, biodiversity and what value we place on water, land and the environment.  The exhibition is currently at Tableland Regional Gallery, Atherton in North Queensland from 5 March – 6 April 2024.
