Bird watching at the beach is so much more than a flock of gulls! We visit coastal Wellington Point Reserve, east of Brisbane, QLD.
At low tide we'll explore King Island, a hidden gem, accessible only at low tide. We'll meet many bird species that call this island home.
Some birds you'll see: Torresian Kingfisher, Red-capped Plover, Pied Butcherbird, Mangrove Honeyeater and many more!
So grab your binoculars, beach ball, and towel, and let's find some birds!
