This Field Guide to Local Birds is brought to you by the Sandy Point Community Group. A major focus of our Sandy Point Community Plan is to protect our unique natural environment.
Local volunteers have supplied content, and all photographs have been taken in and around Sandy Point and Shallow Inlet. Every effort is made to accurately identify our local birds, and to provide links to species information at the Atlas of Living Australia.
