Birdlife

Birds are most abundant by day, with several dozen species regularly seen. If you are awake at dawn you may hear a spectacular bird chorus. Regular sightings of large birds include the threatened Wedge Tailed Eagle, Black Cockatoos, Sulphur Crested Cockatoos and Currawongs (pictured). Dozens of smaller species including blue wren and flame breasted robin, can be found in the shrubs throughout the village and in the forest canopy.

By night, several species of owl and nightjar can often be heard and occasionally seen.

An identification book is usually available for loan from reception.
