Opis

Spring Gul­ly Con­ser­va­tion Park has the only Red Stringybark Woodland in South Australia. This merges into Long-leafed Box Low Woodland on the more rugged slopes. From Blue Gum Look­out take a walk through grassy wood­lands to a sea­son­al water­fall that plunges from a height of 18 metres after rain. Many par­rots, kook­abur­ras and small­er birds make their home in Spring Gul­ly. Common species include Crimson Rosella, Laughing Kookaburra, Yellow-faced Honeyeater, Striated Pardalote, Buff-rumped Thornbill, Grey Shrikethrush and White-winged Chough. Less common species include Painted Buttonquail, Crested Pigeon, Rainbow Bee-eater, Inland Thornbill and Red-capped Robin.
