Trail description

The bird survey trail starts across the road from the large national park information signs, near the NPWS headquarters carpark. The survey trail is a circuit which can be walked in either direction, although it is most commonly walked clockwise. The trail names are not signposted, so you might find it useful to use your phone map to check your progress.

There are toilets at the back of NPWS Headquarters. 


How to survey using Birdata

As you walk along the survey trail, take note of all the birds you see and hear, and of how many of them. This standardised survey is known as a ‘500m area search’.

Record your bird survey using the Birdata app.

Sheyville Nature Reserve has a shared site to encourage repeat surveys. The shared site name in Birdata is Scheyville NP Headquarters SVHQ31

More than 80 species of birds have been recorded at this site using Birdata. For more information about some of these birds, visit the Bird Profiles.
