Descrição
Kent Street Weir lies within the Canning River Regional Park. The Park is scenic and holds a good suite of Perth's common bush and water birds.
From the Parks and Wildlife page - see link: "Canning River Regional Park extends for six kilometres along both sides of Perth’s Canning River. The tranquil riverside landscape has a rich history. The Canning River (‘Dyarlgaard’) is Noongar country. Beeliar traditional owners followed the course of the river when moving across country. They used the resources for food and shelter and cared for the river and land around it.
Early European settlers set up dairy farms, market gardens, orchards, and vineyards. Remnants of that history remain in the park’s buildings and sites. A visit to Woodloes Homestead is fascinating. It’s one of the few remaining 19th century houses in the area. The Kent Street Weir was built in 1927 to prevent movement of salt water up the Canning River. There’s now a café at the Weir serving snacks, meals and drinks and places to have a picnic and launch your canoe.
If you thought this was just a river, think again. You can explore salt marshes, billabongs, lush forest and woodland. Look for birds and wildlife that shelter in the eucalypts, sheoaks, paperbarks and sedgelands.
Explore the area on one of the many walk trails. They are well-marked with signage which describes the area’s ecology and history. Keep your wits about you as these trails are dual use, for pedestrians and cyclists".

Note: The trail suggestion is just that, a suggestion. Any of the trails in the Park (see P&W link below) will likely yield similar bird assemblages.
Canoeing on the Canning River is a good way to quietly observe birds roosting in the Flooded Gums that line the River. Canoes can be launched at Mason's Landing, Kent St Weir, Riverton Jetty Park or Woodloes Park.
