The Coobowie Bird Hide is nestled on the southern edge of Coobowie, only a stone’s throw from Stansbury, and is home to a vast array of birdlife. In June 2023, a new Osprey nesting platform was installed. The bird hide provides a rare opportunity to observe these endangered birds of prey in their natural habitat. (photo credit Malcolm Stanton)
