✨🎖Peter Gash, Managing Director of Lady Elliot Island Eco Resort and Owner/Chief Pilot of sister company @seairpacificaviation has been awarded an Order of Australia Medal (OAM) in the General Division in the annual Australia Day Honors List for his service to eco-tourism and aviation🎖✨ The Order of Australia Medal recognises Australians who have demonstrated outstanding service or exceptional achievement. “The award came as a great surprise and I feel very humbled by the fact that people have gone to the effort of nominating myself for such an accolade. I feel strongly that this award belongs to my family as well as all of our team members, friends and the many fantastic and passionate supporters of the work we do with Lady Elliot Island in the eco-tourism, environmental conservation, reef education and renewable energy space. To have been awarded this accolade in the two areas of ‘eco-tourism’ and ‘aviation’ speaks volumes for the fact that these areas can be mutually supportive and beneficial for the advancement of education and environmental stewardship without detracting from each other. This indicates a remarkable approach by the Australia Day Awards Committee to the challenges the planet faces in the future” – Peter Gash OAM Photo credit: abc.net.au & @colbaker

❕TIGER SHARK TAGGING ON THE SOUTHERN GREAT BARRIER REEF❕🦈 FULL BLOG & VIDEO IN BIO 🦈 On Tuesday 14th January Richard Fitzpatrick from @biopixeloceans and the Lady Elliot Island team satellite tagged the first ever tiger shark ‘Amy’ on the Southern Great Barrier Reef. ‘Amy’ is a 3.5m female tiger shark weighing over 250kgs. Shark tagging programs aid researchers in understanding shark movements and behaviours. Amy the Tiger Shark was fitted with; ▫️An underbelly acoustic transmitter ‘pinger’ ▫️Fin mounted satellite tag Richard also used this critical time to complete body measurements as well as retrieve a DNA and fin sample. Sharks are essential to the health of the ocean, they are top predators, helping to regulate and maintain the balance of marine ecosystems all around the world. On Lady Elliot Island we are excited to have been a part of this research. You can follow ‘Amy’ the Tiger Shark on reeftracks.org 🤍 The catch, release and research conducted on ‘Amy’ the Tiger Shark was approved under Biopixel Oceans Foundations Research Permit. #thisisqueensland #seeaustralia #southerngreatbarrierreef #lovethereef #visitbundaberg #visitfrasercoast #ladyelliotisland #biopixel #biopixeloceansfoundation

🦈🦈 We have been very fortunate over the past few weeks to have had some tiger sharks visit the island! 😱 It is not uncommon for us to see them at this time of year as turtles are a primary food source for them and we are in the middle of peak turtle season! ••• 📸 @jacintashackleton #ladyelliotisland #thisisqueensland #seeaustralia #southerngreatbarrierreef #visitbundaberg #visitfrasercoast
