Birdlife along the Rainbow Coast
Western Australia

 

Western Australian PelicanThe birdlife along the Rainbow Coast is as diverse as the countryside. There are several species of birds which can be found no where else on earth.

The black swan of western australia makes it's home along the waterways surrounding the Wilson Inlet along with the WA pelican and many other waterfowl. The blue wren is the symbol of Denmark and their bright blue feathers can be seen from most windows in the region.

Living close to the waterways of the coast, most residents note the daily and yearly patterns of the migrating birds as they come and go with the seasons.
