Bird Watching

1/30

The Darling Downs Estate has 21 hectares of parkland bush that has a diverse range of birds that inhabit the area.

Next time you come for a walk or a horse ride, slow down a little and enjoy the environment you are in. Try and count how many different birds you can find in the trees and surrounding bush.

If you find any new birds that we have not shown here on our website, take a photo and send it in to our secretary at penny@kea.com.au
