Beschrijving
When full the Rowles Lagoon abounds with waterfowl. Commonly seen are Black Swan, Australian Shelduck and Hoary-headed Grebe. Surrounding vegetation will also yield a good range of bushbirds. Hooded Robin is a chance.
From the Parks and Wildlife page (see link below): "Rowles Lagoon is a freshwater wetland in the Goldfields Region reserved for nature conservation. The lake and wetlands may appear very different depending on the seasons. During drought they can totally dry out, but then fill again to overflowing during seasons of heavy rain.
Spend the day or stay a while and camp under the stars. When the water level is high enough, take a swim or explore the lake on your canoe. To respect the birds and tranquility of the reserve, motorised vessels and water skiing are not permitted.
There is lots of wildlife here. 41 species of waterbirds have been recorded on the lakes, including eight protected species. The freckled duck, one of the world's rarest waterfowl, has been recorded breeding here twice. When Rowles Lagoon has water in it, use the fringing tea tree thicket as a natural bird hide. It’s fascinating to be able to observe the wildlife up close!"
