Hello Canberra,

π Today: Itβs Friday 2nd February.
πͺΏ World Wetlands Day and the Jerrabomberra Wetlands App
Today is World Wetlands Day. 40% of all plant and animal species live or breed in wetlands, yet they only cover around 6 per cent of the Earth's land surface.
In the ACT, we're lucky to have several wetland areas, including Jerrabomberra Wetlands. It's one of the ACT's most significant wetland habitats. It is an important sanctuary for local birds as well as birds migrating from the northern hemisphere and from inland Australia.
Did you know the Jerrabomberra Wetlands has an app! It will guide you on a tour of the nature reserve and includes audio story-telling and visual map cues. Details here.
Coming up: β€οΈ Valentines Day in Canberra

Canberra United are taking on top of the table Melbourne City FC in the A-League. Kick-off at McKellar Park is at 5pm. Kids under 12 are free for general admission. Tickets here.
