Beskrivning

Tyto Wetlands is a surprising gem in the town of Ingham. it is full of interconnected lagoons and grasslands all accessible by footpaths. There are several viewing areas providing good views of everything from Crimson Finch and White-gaped Honeyeater to Black-necked Stork and Shining Flycatcher.

Look out for a host of waterbirds on the lagoons with good numbers of both Plumed Whistling-Duck and Wandering Whistling-Duck as well as Green Pygmy-Goose. Skulking in the undergrowth there are glimpses of White-browed Crake, White-browed Robin and both Lovely Fairywren and Red-backed Fairywren.
