Bribie Island is one of three major sand islands that shelter part of Moreton Bay in Queensland. It is the only island in Queensland connected to the mainland by bridge. Bribie Island is a wildlife sanctuary with two main bird watching sites in Kakadu Beach and Buckley’s Hole. The artificial roost site in Kakadu Beach was built to compensate for the natural roost site on Dux Creek which was lost to a canal estate development. Buckley’s Hole Conservation Park includes a freshwater lagoon, open forest woodland, and beach.
Many of the reported 380 bird species found in Bribie Island can be sighted at just these two sites. This blog highlights the rarest 10% of those birds found in Bribie Island - there is a smiley emoji somewhere…
