This birdwalk took place on a nice, sunny morning, at several reserves south of Brisbane: The first of these is Karawatha Forest, a large public park containing mostly remnant bushland. At the south of the parkland is a string of melaleuca-lined lagoons, which are supposed to be teeming with wildlife and birds. Unfortunately, throughout the 30Continue reading “Karawatha/Berrinba”

Hi All, I’m back with another slightly less successful birding story. It was a lovely, sunny morning, especially after receiving so much rain in the days before the event, more than Brisbane had received in 6 months. This meant that Toowong Creek was flowing, for the first time in a long time. First up wereContinue reading “Toowong Creek / ANZAC Park Outing”

Hi Everyone, I’m back (finally, I know) with a brand new article, for any aspiring birdwatchers looking for somewhere to see some birds. Here are my personal favourites, in no particular order: 1. Sandy Camp Road Wetlands, Lytton: Group of lagoons near Port of Brisbane, home to many waders, waterfowl and bush birds. Look outContinue reading “Best Birding Spots Around Brisbane”

Hi, Sorry for not writing on this earlier, as it actually occured about two months ago so my memory isn’t as good as it was back then about this walk. Well, it was a lovely morning walk through a rehabilitated area of former farmland along the South Pine River with Birds Queensland, and although itContinue reading “Samford Eco-Corridor Outing”

Sorry to keep you guys waiting, I promise one (if not two) new blogs will come out soon-ish. While you wait, why not check out my other website outlining my second hobby, bidkeeping: Bardon Finch Aviaries

This is my third outing since the blog started, and although not racking in as much Birds as the other walk, it brought in a fair 22 species, although it would’ve been nicer with more species. The walk started on the Chelsea Road side of the wetands and ended halfway in between the wetlands. AContinue reading “Mookin-Bah Wetlands Outing”

Another glorious, sunny day led to perfect conditions for a morning birdwalk, organised by Birds Queensland. The group converged by the carpark At 6.30am exactly and we were quick to get going. Our first destination was the main dam, with very few waterbirds. Some of these included Pacific Black Ducks, a Hardhead and a DuskyContinue reading “Kumbartcho Sanctuary Outing”

Hi all, This morning I went on a fabulous bird watching outing with members from Birds Queensland at the locally famous birding location Eagleby Wetlands, on the Albert River bordering the Waste Treatment Plant and Oliver Sports Complex, with a total of about 70 birds, 59 of which I have put on ebird. Upon Entering,Continue reading “Eagleby Wetlands Outing”
