Land for Wildlife Property Report

Landscape context & habitat connectivity
How well the vegetation on your property is connected to other areas of wildlife habitat
largely determines the diversity of species you can expect to see on your property. Your
property (outlined in red) lies within a matrix of remnant and regrowth native vegetation
and cleared land. Vegetated lands to the south lie within the Black Mountain Range. The
property forms part of a vegetated corridor linking this areas to vegetated lands to the
north. The property also protects a riparian corridor along Middle Creek. There are
numerous Land for Wildlife properties in your local area that also contribute towards
providing habitat for wildlife. The property is part of the Mary River catchment.

Geology
The geological formation on your property is described as Metamorphic rocks (Phyllite
Shale – Land Zone 11) on the higher land along Middle Creek and alluvial soils (Land
zone 3) on the floodplain along Middle Creek. If you are interested in the geology of the
local area the book “Rocks and landscapes of the Sunshine Coast” is recommended.
