Under
the Ramsar Convention, The Coorong and Lakes Alexandrina and
Albert are recognised as a wetland of international significance.
Poltalloch Station has approximately 17 kilometres of shoreline
along Lake Alexandrina and Albert Channel (The Narrows) and
our wetlands have been identified as some of the most critical
bird habitats in the Coorong and Lakes area. The proximity
of the shoreline to our pristine native bushland and the farming
paddocks, provides a variety of readily accessible bird watching
opportunities.
This
is not a complete list of all the bird species to be seen
at Poltalloch. Please let us know if you can positively identify
any other birds.
