The Bribie Island Birdwatching Weekend List

Each time our resident kookaburra fluffs up its wings and lets out its morning chuckle upon our fence, we stop and stare and inch quietly closer. If we spot an owl on our evening jog, we are similarly entranced and rendered silent. This weekend, why not turn this instinctive spying on birds into a purposeful event, rather than simply one of chance. more

Here’s a little list to inspire new habits in your weekend routine. more
