Nature Studies
10.00 - 11.00 am
Darryl Jones & Jane Melville
with Robert Gott
Location:
Reardon Theatre
Human history and natural history have always been deeply intertwined. In this panel, museum curator and biologist Jane Melville uncovers the lost legacies of pioneering naturalist Jane Tost, and the early history of ornithology, while environmental researcher Darryl Jones untangles the complex, everyday interactions between humans and urban wildlife, specifically the remarkable behaviours of our birds. Together, they share true stories of ecological resilience, curiosity, and the critical importance of protecting our avian and wild neighbours.
