Beschreibung
Olympic Park is one of Sydney's best birding spots. The numerous ponds and creeks in the park provide habitat for an impressive array of waterbird species. Over a quarter of Australia’s birds have been observed here. One of the best areas for birding is the Waterbird Refuge. The water level in this pond is regulated and a gate opens twice a day to mimic the tide so that exposed mudflats provide foraging habitat at low tide, and shallow water and man-made islands provide roosting sites at high tide. This attracts many birds and migratory waders.
Other good areas in Olympic Park are the Coastal marsh, Badu Mangroves, the forested parts of the park, riverside walkway, Northern Water Feature, Narawang Wetland and Lake Belvedere. There is an endless amount of fairywrens, cormorants, darters and egrets here. See the birdlist below.
