Description
During the months of Biderap the weather is hot and dry, the Bowat (tussock-grass) is long and dry, female Common Brown butterflies are flying, and the stars are high in the south at sunrise.
We’ve created a summer – Biderap season scavenger hunt wheel for children to use to to help them learn about and connect to the Kulin Nation seasons. This summer – Biderap season scavenger hunt helps children connect to the land and notice the environment and the things around them. Have you noticed all the brown butterflies flying around? During the hot, summer days, the common brown butterfly is out feedling on the native grasses which are in seed at this time of the year. Common brown butterflies need a cool, shady place to avoid the extreme heat. To attract butterflies into your garden in summer, plant flowering plants and make sure you have plenty of cool, shady spots.
This Australian summer – Biderap season scavenger hunt has been hand illustrated and painted by artist and Eco Explorers bush playgroup facilitator Kate Rijs.
