Our regular monthly excursions
MBOG outings are for BirdLife Western Australian members and their guests. Members of the public are always welcome to join the walk and are encouraged to bring a pair of binoculars.
Bring a chair and morning tea to have while the bird list is compiled.
Suitable footwear, sunscreen and clothing for bushwalking is recommended.
A caution – wetlands hold healthy mosquito populations! When visiting apply an appropriate insect repellent and/or cover up.
Our regular monthly excursion for August
Marlee Reserve - Friday 28 August 2026
Marlee Reserve features diverse bushland and a seasonal swamp. This important wetland contains one of WA’s few remaining tuart stands and provides habitat for protected and endangered species, including black cockatoos and phascogales.
We will follow the 2.3 km loop trail around the reserve in search of bushland and wetland birds. Please note there are no toilet facilities.
Please bring your usual BYO morning tea, chair, suitable footwear, insect repellent and binoculars. You may also wish to bring a camera.
Meet at 8:30 am in the car park at the end of Mulga Drive, Parklands.
