ST LAWRENCE WETLANDS

The wetlands behind the St Lawrence Recreation Reserve were alive with birdlife. We spent a couple of hours, morning and afternoon in the birdhide and were rewarded with some very special sightings - Jabarus and Bustards in particular.

There were hundreds of waterlilies across the wetlands.
