SUMMARY:Josh Coates – ‘Australian alpine pollinators in a changing world’
DESCRIPTION:Josh\, a PhD Student at the ANU\, will present his research in pollination ecology in Kosciuszko National Park\, from the community level down to a few case studies of charismatic species such as the Bogong moth. \nAbstract \nPollinators in Australia’s alpine ecosystems display unique adaptations that allow them to persist in a cold climate. Despite being buried under snow for half of the year\, these harsh environments support a diverse array of flowering plants and insect pollinators. Unfortunately\, these environments will also see some of the earliest and most severe effects of warming under climate change. \nBiography \nJosh is a final-year PhD Student at the Fenner School of Environment and Society ANU. His research focuses on alpine pollination ecology. He also works at CSIRO’s National Insect Collection and in the ACT Snake Removal service. \nBookings open on 10 October at https://www.trybooking.com/DDEFV \nBooking\nLunchtime talks are held at 12.30 pm every Thursday from February to November. Talks last for 1 hour. We welcome donations by gold coins\, notes\, or electronically. The Friends use donations received at each talk to support Gardens’ programs and development and we thank all those who have donated. \nUnless otherwise indicated\, talks are held in the ANBG Theatrette. \nIt is a good idea to reserve a seat at the talks that you wish to attend; talks may be booked out very quickly.  Bookings can be made from about 30 days in advance until the night before the talk or until seating limits are reached. \nThe Friends of the ANBG thank the speakers who volunteer their time and talents to further the knowledge of all attending events in the Gardens. Many summaries or PowerPoint presentations of Thursday talks are available to Friends at the ANBG library. Please direct queries about the talks to the Thursday Talks Team: email talks@friendsanbg.org.au.

SUMMARY:Cameras and Café Walk
DESCRIPTION:With spring well underway the Gardens are a riot of colour and for those interested in macro photography insects abound! \nBe at the bus stop at 8.40 am. We then disperse\, either individually or in groups\, to capture in images the beauty (and sometimes the beasties) that make the Gardens such a special place. We get back together for a chat and a snack at Pollen Cafe at around 10.30 am. \nA member of the Friends of ANBG Photographic Group Committee is always present to help with introductions and be a source of expertise and advice. Any level of photographic knowledge and equipment is most welcome.
