10,000 Birds

JANUARY 13, 2013

The weather in Karratha was very hot during our visit with daytime temperatures of 38c (100f) and the predominant birds in the township were Little Corella , Crested Pigeons and Silver Gulls. Karratha is a town built on industry and first impressions do not give you particularly high hopes for any good birding areas.

The Red Wattlebird, Spotted Doves and Common Mynas are the most common birds on this trail. There are a lot of small sheltered bays along the coast and you can choose to walk along the beach or promenade. On the sheltered side of several jetties I came across small groups of up to seven Hoary-headed Grebes bobbing along.

I would do a lap of the lake and take in all of the different species of birds that called the city home. – we encountered a different variety of birds. It remains a good location for observing birds close to the city and easily accessible by public transport.
