Bird Watching
Details
- Griffith , 2680, New South Wales
- 1800 681 141
Griffith is at the crossroads of bird migration particularly for eastern and western species – perfect for bird watching, even for the serious twitcher.
Within the Griffith city area itself, there are very accessible sites where our local birds can be seen at close range. Perhaps the most notable of these is Scenic Hill and Griffith Golf Course areas where Major Mitchell’s Cockatoo and other parrot species are common.
Lake Wyangan and Campbell’s Wetlands are also worth visiting for water birds and further afield, Cocoparra National Park (check NPWS website for closures) and the adjoining Binya State Forest have some of the best birding sites in the whole of the Riverina.
For more information on birding in the region call in and see the team at the Griffith Tourism Hub.
