NSW Parks: Sounds of nature: Border Ranges Gondwana Rainforest

“Listen to our (NPWS) Gondwana Rainforests soundscape on the NSW National Parks, to be transported to this incredible part of Australia.

Border Ranges National Park forms part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, which stretches past Newcastle to south-east Queensland. The Gondwana Rainforests are globally recognised as home to the most extensive areas of subtropical rainforest in the world, plus most of the world’s Antarctic beech cool temperate rainforest. These extraordinary areas contain ancestors of ancient and primitive plants and animals.”

Terri Nicholson – A Singer-Songwriter of the Caldera

Note: The sound files here were recorded at the Caldera World Environment Day event 2023.

Terri: “Growing up surrounded by the Terania rainforest, as well as the knowledge that it was the community’s activism that had protected it from logging, provides a deep appreciation and courage.”

Terri sings both her own songs and the songs of the forest protests of that time. “Keeping the songs of the forest protests alive feels important for the continuity of story and commitment to native forest protection.”

Terri: “Growing up in an activist family of rainforest lovers … I stand for environmental sustainability and conscious aware relationships (with self and others and the earth) … I value NATURE. The beauty, intricacy and interconnected reality that we are the earth, as it is us … Guided by a sense of ecological-self, always in deep reverence and relationship with the living earth.” read more
