June Outing - Wharkuroogma Wetlands, Roadvale

Lower dam at Wharkuroogma

We can't promise as much water as this on our June outing but it will still be very special.

Not only waterbirds are in abundance but bush birds such as Speckled Warbler, finches, honeyeaters and fairy-wrens. Koalas are sometimes seen and there's usually butterflies flitting around the mistletoe and grasses. It might be a bit cool for dragonflies but who knows ........
