Meet Colm Gavin and Cooley ! ... one of PMPs pilot farmers

Colm Gavin Bundorragha

The PMP team were out on a glorious day in the Bunndorragha catchment last week visiting pilot farmer Colm Gavin. 

The project has been working with a pilot farmer in each of the 8 freshwater pearl mussel catchments included the project. The pilot farmers have been helping the PMP team to trial assessment methods and discussing the development of supporting actions to help protect freshwater pearl mussel populations. 

The picture shows Mary McAndrew, West and North West Catchment officer, with Colm Gavin in the beautiful Bundorragha catchment along with his sheep dog Cooley!
