Favourite species and why
“Smooth-barked apple (Angophora leiocarpa) as I love when they shed their bark in summer and their trunks are a bright orange, especially after rain as it looks amazing in the landscape!”

  • Flora and fauna surveys
  • General ecological assessments including BioCondition
  • Field collection and preservation of plant specimens

What our clients say

Craig did a brilliant environmental audit and pointed out things that we didn’t even know existed. He scientifically mounted an argument by looking at numbers and regions using botanical names to classify each of the plants and animals – it’s that rigour that makes the biodiversity offset application so credible.
Richard ReidRural Operations Manager, Silver Lining Foundation Australia
Boobook’s service has been used over a number of years on various projects in South Western Queensland including fauna spotting/catching, EVNT flora surveys and invasive plant surveys. In this time, Boobook’s owners and staff have been personable and highly knowledgeable in their various fields.
Environmental Officer, Department of Transport and Main Roads
We’ve worked with Boobook for a long time now, you can be confident with what you are going to get, and you deal with the same people too. We can talk to Craig or Meryl or the senior people, and we get the same level of understanding. We’ve always been very happy with the Boobook service.
John EarleyEnvironmental Manager, Senex Energy Limited
I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Boobook for consulting work – they collaborate really well and they are so good at dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. They have a really good set of skills across the board.
Nikki ThompsonFarmer, Landowner/Manager
If you want locally applied knowledge with a group of people who understand what it means to play an active and meaningful role in a community then Boobook are the ones for you. It’s a small company that has a high level of attention to detail and provides a great customer experience that isn’t lost in the workings or mechanics of a large nationally based company.
