Mallee and Outback Birds of Victoria and Mungo
- Kesto: 8 Päivät (noin)
- Paikka: Victoria
- Tuotekoodi: Malleeandoutbackbirds
An 8-day birding journey to reveal the marvellous birdlife of arid central and north western Victoria and Lake Mungo.
We cross the Great Dividing Range and travel deeper into the Outback in search of the birds and other wildlife that thrive in diverse habitats in the arid zones. We explore ancient granite outcrops, vast open plains, Ramsar-listed ephemeral wetlands, outback rivers, salt lakes, Mallee woodlands, saltbush scrublands, undulating red dunes, ancient lakes of the Willandra World Heritage Area, the Lake Mungo Lunette (Walls of China). Taking our time we look for numerous desert parrots and cockatoos, waterbirds, a host of honeyeaters, more obvious inland birds as well as some of the more elusive and conservation-dependent Mallee birds, like Malleefowl and Mallee emu-wren. While we will be focussing on birds we also take time to observe mammals, reptiles, invertebrates, flora, landscapes and the rich heritage of the Willandra Lakes area.
