Birding weekend 2025

Myrtleford, Victoria

Getting there

We have decided to have our 2025 Bird Camp around Myrtleford Victoria. The area has a number of different types of habit but the main reason is it being close by wet forest, in particular the Mount Buffalo National Park. The wet forest birds that we may find are Superb Lyrebird, Pilotbird, Satin Bowerbird, Red-browed Treecreeper, Rufous Fantail, Olive Whistler, Eastern Whipbird plus various Honeyeaters and Robins. In fact, it is possible to see 8 species of Robin in the area including Pink and Rose.
At this stage the details have not been finalised but will look at areas in and around Myrtleford itself including the Poo Ponds, Lake Buffalo and some local forest tracks.
For accommodation there are three caravan or camping parks in Myrtleford itself plus hotels and motels in the town and a number of B&Bs etc in the general area. If you intend on going, I suggest you book as soon as possible to ensure on securing a place.
As usual we suggest driving up on the Friday to get settled in if you can. There will be walks organised for Friday afternoon, Saturday morning and afternoon and Sunday morning. If enough people are interested, we may look at doing a night walk on Saturday night. A communal dinner will also be arranged for the Friday night at a hotel or restaurant in Myrtleford.
