WWFF Cecil Hoskins Nature Reserve VKFF-1906

Took a week off work to do some park activations in the Southern Highlands/Illawarra Region. Drove from a foggy Canberra to my first park, Cecil Hoskins Nature Reserve, VKFF-1906. This is easy to find, a sign on the Moss Vale Rd


The park has several picnic tables. I picked one that was in the sun. The fog had gone, but still only around 13c. Set up the squid pole on the table. For a change it was easy to strap on to the end, some picnic tables are not good for support. Dipole legs out to a nearby fence and a tree.

Got on 40 m. Lots of park activators on. Worked

Tried 80m, only one contact with VK2IO/P Gerard on VK2/ST-039 Mount Marulan 

Packed up and took a look at the park. Nice walk along the lagoon, with a bird watching platform
