Kensington Bushland Reserve

The portion of Jarrah Road that defined the western boundary of the reserve is a cul de sac, known as Baron Hay Court.

It is bounded to the north by Harold Rossiter Park, and George Reserve and has an area of 9.1 hectares (22 acres).

[5] Major weeds are Asparagus asparagoides, perennial veldt grass, Gladiolus caryophyllaceus, while Ehrharta longiflora, Ursinia anthemoides, and Misopates orontium are also threatening also to become a problem.

[5] This bushland is part of the threatened ecological community (TEC), Banksia woodlands of the Swan Coastal Plain, the main threats to which are: fragmentation, dieback,[12] weed invasion, inappropriate fire regimes and climate change.

Significant bird species which may be seen in the bushland are Carnaby's Black Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus latirostris) - endangered, Forest Red-tailed Black Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus banksii) - vulnerable, and the rainbow bee-eater (Merops ornatus),[5] with Forest Redtailed Black-Cockatoo being year-round residents of the area.
