Descrição

The Big Swamp is an urban wetland that provides important habitat and refuge for many native species including the Long-necked (or Snake-necked) Turtle and many birds. It is therefore recognised as a regionally significant conservation and recreation area. The wetland is popular with bird enthusiasts and there are a number of lookouts. It is visited by over 80 species of birds, and is a home to waterbirds such as the Australasian Swamphen, Australian Pelican, Yellow-billed Spoonbill, Australasian Grebe, Maned Duck, Australian Shelduck, Black-fronted Dotterel, Australian White Ibis and Straw-necked Ibis.
