The station is a birdwatcher’s paradise with around 200 resident and migratory bird species spotted on the property. Just before sunrise, you’ll hear the raucous call of the blue-winged kookaburra starting up, followed by a chorus of noisy sulphur-crested cockatoos, masked lapwings, and honeyeaters.

It’s a hotspot for finches, with more than ten species found here including the exquisite star finch, and the colourful and threatened Gouldian finch.
