Corrimal, NSW, Australia

                In the Warmer Months!

In September through to March Corrimal and other locales on the south coast of 

New South Wales come to life with birds and also bird song.

There are species such as the Sooty Oystercatcher can be found any time of year at

Corrimal Beach though more often at Towradgi Beach.

It is one of the strangest of birds having a long red beak, red eyes, a sooty grey body of feathers and pink legs. 

They prefer to be where there are rocks, sand and sea. You more often than not see them in pairs. If you find one, the other can't be far away. Please keep dogs away from them. 

Pelicans are common enough throughout Australia and can be found on Corrimal and Towradgi  Beach any time of the year as well as swimming about in Bellambi Lagoon. 

 Black-Shouldered Kites can be seen around Corrimal, Towradgi and Bellambi Lagoon in the warmer months of the year.

Black Cockatoos are more likely to be ween in the Corrimal, Towradgi and Bellambi area in Spring and Summer when there is plenty of food for them around. 

This curious looking insect was discovered in Corrimal one summer three years ago!

Water Dragons are seen throughout the south coast of New South Wales in Spring and Summer. They are harmless. Please don't hurt them.   

Yes, Water Dragons can climb trees but you don't often see them doing so. This was seen a few years ago at Towradgi Creek, not far from Corrimal. 

I have only ever seen this fellow hanging around the waterways of Corrimal and Towradgi in Spring and Summer. I have seen this heron catch small fish.

CHEERS!
