Bindaree bush is the area of bush on the corner of Bindaree terrace and Goollelal Drive, Kingsley. It forms part of the Yellagonga Park which is administered by cooperation of Wanneroo and Joondalup councils and the Dept. of Environment and Conservation ( DEC ).
Bindaree Bush at present is the responsibility of Joondalup Council and representations are being made on behalf of FOY ( Friends of Yellagonga community group ) to the Council to protect and conserve this small area of biodiversity. Previous well meaning projects pushing paths through the bush have resulted in loss of bush allowing light to penetrate the canopy and weeds to find an easy route into the area.
The edges are the subject of incursions by annual slashing which further reduces the bush area.
Garden rubbish is dumped in the bush and this often contains vigorous plants which choke the native vegetation.
It is hoped that this small patch of original bush may be used as a seed source for revegetation of rehabilitation areas around Lake Goollelal but first it needs to be protected.
