My friend Trev invited me to count lyre birds with his local community, between Gunai/Kurnai Country and Boonwurrung Country. 'We listen to their songs, and make a map of them.'

I was picked up to go to a citizen science camp in Goongerah-East Gippsland. I'd come to Melbourne for respite, after the Lismore flood. I was excited to see Audrey, who I'd first met at a citizen science camp 10 years ago. But the forest looked completely different to how it had looked the last time I'd visited.
