Description

Lightning Swamp Bush contains a range of mixed bushland communities and is representative of the natural environment that once covered the Swan Coastal Plain.

The wetlands (which are dry over summer) attract a good number of waterbirds, whilst the banksia woodland, heathland and riparian fringe of the wetlands provides an ideal habitat for a large complement of bush birds. Endangered Carnaby's Black-Cockatoo are often sighted feeding and roosting in banksias and Flooded Gums.

The ephemeral swamps, with their inundated thickets, act as important roosting and nesting sites for waterbirds such as the Eurasian Coot, Purple Swamphen and Australian Wood Duck during winter.
