Bob’s Lake Ecological Investigation

(Greenskills Inc)

Bob’s Lake is one of the smaller lakes within of a suite of lakes to the northwest of the Stirling Range in Western Australia. It covers an area of about 16 hectares and is within the Lehmann family farm property “Westholm” north of Cranbrook. The Lehmann family have made the lake accessible for birdwatchers and recently a bird hide has been installed on the edge of the lake. A Citizen Science Bird Survey managed by Dr Nic Dunlop has found that Bob’s Lake is visited by many different waterbirds. The question then arose as to what were these birds feeding on. A Citizen Science wetland investigation event was developed for 22 February 2017
