Perth Birding Tours

In the far south-west of Australia lies one of the world’s most isolated cities: Perth. To its north are inhospitable outback deserts. To its south is one of Australia’s best birding locations, where a great number of species occur that cannot be found elsewhere in the country, including 15 endemics.

These include Short-billed and Long-billed Black-Cockatoos, Western Corella, Red-capped Parrot, Western Rosella, Western Wattlebird, Western Spinebill, Gilbert’s Honeyeater, Red-winged Fairywren, Red-eared Firetail, Western Thornbill, Western Fieldwren and White-breasted Robin; and the infamous skulking trio: Noisy Scrub-bird, Western Whipbird and Western Bristlebird. Other good species to be found in the wider region include Southern Emuwren, White-cheeked Honeyeater, Western Yellow Robin, Western Whistler, Blue-breasted Fairywren, Rufous Treecreeper and (Western) Crested Shrike-tit, as well as Regent, Elegant & Rock Parrot.
