Birding Resources
Ah! The internet. So much information and so little time to find it all.
So you want to go on a trip, or a weekend away and combine it with some outdoors and some birdwatching. How do you know where the best places are and what to look for when you get there?
At Murrumbidgee Field Naturalists we try to provide you with some of that information for our area - Griffith, Leeton and Narrandera in NSW. The best information is shared information. You can go to as many Tourist Information Centres as you like, but without staff who are keen and interested in birds and low impact visiting, you really need word of mouth.
A site like Birdpedia is one that attempts to provide a broad coverage of reserves and good field trip locations. In order to cover the areas they want, they need your help too. If you sign up with them, you can submit your bird lists from your favourite locations and you can write the trip reports too.
A quick look at Birdpedia’s locations for our region show a lack of knowledge, so far. But at least its a start. When you come to visit the Mid Murrumbidgee Valley, or Griffith NSW, check us out first and then see what the rest have to offer.
