About this event
EVENT FULL
SATURDAY 1 August (afternoon) - Wongaloo Wetlands introductory nature explore
This will be a short explore of Wongaloo Wetlands Conservation Park (Cromarty). Although it will be short it distance it will be 4 hrs duration as the primary focus will be wildlife spotting and photography. The area is a prolific wetlands bird area so hopefully we'll see many brolga, Jabiru, magpie geese plus much more.
Apart from wetlands there are woodlands and a bit of rainforest on the reserve which we may also explore if it's not too wet after the rain last week.
So if you like wetlands and birds +/- photography, this is a good opportunity to observe. This will be a small group event.
