Hidden Treasures Dawn and Dusk Bird Walks
Daily from the last Saturday in August through to the last Saturday in October, the one and a half hour, Hidden Treasures Bird Walks depart from Stirling Range Retreat’s office daily at 8am and 3pm. Binoculars can be provided on request.
More than 100 bird species have been recorded for Stirling Range Retreat, including the rare Crested Shrike-tit and Carnaby’s Black-cockatoo. Bush birds show off their stunning breeding plumage in spring, and the conserved environment in both the Retreat and the adjacent Stirling Range National Park provide habitat and nesting sites for a large variety of species.
Walks are led by volunteer BirdLife Australia leaders, who with Stirling Range Retreat donate one hundred percent of the tariff for all bird activities to BirdLife Australia WA to help preserve habitat for threatened species. The Hidden Treasures Bird Walks are limited to eight participants.
Cost: $20.00 per person.
