After nearly ten years at Fourth Crossing we have made the move further north to Middle Farm which is in the Northern Tablelands of NSW. Middle Farm is part of a 400 acre property which is a citizens wildlife refuge. The habitat is mainly grassland (farm land) with segments of dry sclerophyll forests where kangaroos and wallabies rest by day. The climate is mainly temperate, reaching as low as -10 degrees celsius in the winter months and rising to the low thirties in summer. Wildlife is abundant and includes marsupials such as Koalas, Bare-Nosed Wombats, Eastern Grey Kangaroos, Swamp Wallabies and Wallaroos. Not far up the road are also Brush-Tailed Rock Wallabies! Bird species include Noisy Minors, Magpies, visiting Satin Bowerbirds, Crested Pigeons, Eastern Rosellas, Galahs, Butcherbirds, Wedge-Tailed Eagles, Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoos and more. Middle Farm is neighbouring a National Parks and Wildlife administered area and there are many wildlife corridors on the property and surrounding it for ease of movement for the animals. The farm is also very close to lots of other wonderful National Parks - it is a real pleasure to live the wildlife here!
