On the first trip in 2012 we used public transport to get there and the train conveniently gets you to Macarthur Square shopping centre and you can then get a bus that drops you right at the entrance to the park. We encountered one crossing the road in 2012, but with the cooler weather this year there was less turtle activity.

The litter consists of two males and one female. Malayan tiger cub births in managed care are rare – just one successful birth in 2012 as part of the SSP. Three endangered Malayan tiger cubs were born at Busch Gardens Tampa Sunday, March 31. These births are critical to help preserve the species.

It turns out that the reclaimed mines work well as habitat for the sparrow because they collect a layer of leaf litter, a key nesting requirement.

It was late December, 2012, and I slotted into a sizable group under the joint leadership of two highly respected birders. I expected to learn a thing or two and possibly see some birds I had never seen before.

We did have the good fortune of finding an individually marked Bar-tailed Godwit that was marked in Yalu Jiang Nature Reserve in China last April 15th and was last seen there on May 11th 2012. I expect he has done some travelling in the period from May 2012 to February 2013! Shorebird roost at Toorbul.

I was very fortunate to visit the park twice, once in April 2012 and just recently in November 2013, and can fully confirm that the birding is epic. At first I was really irritated by the crowds, by their noise and to some extend their littering. Even if you think the people are ruining your birding day, they are not.

Ferns were prominent and it was very easy to walk quietly due to all of the damp leaf litter. We walked on for another hour and our last new bird for 2012 that day was a Fan-tailed Cuckoo as we left the trail and headed back to Springwood train station. The gully was really quite steep in places. In the gully!
