Bird Watching
Australia's native birds
are of great interest to both the novice and expert
bird watcher. Snowy Mountain Holidays enjoys
a number of native bird species which frequent our gardens.
Many are here all year long, many are migratory and
frequent seasonally. Some of the more interesting
species are the Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo, Kookaburras,
many types of honey eaters, Superb Fairy Wrens and many more.
When spending time on or by the river you are able
to see a variety of different species of birds who frequent the
river and surrounding lowlands. In the air there are
often hawks, ibis, kites, pelicans, the Nankeen Kestrel and
occasionally a Wedge-tailed Eagle. You will always be entertained
by Crimson Rosellas, Galahs and Sulphur Crested White Cockatoos.
The Upper Murray
area and surrounding national parks have a generous
array of wildlife with wallabies, kangaroos, emus,
platypus, wombats and echidna.
