Boondall Wetlands

[3] The wetlands support a diversity of wildlife, including invertebrates, fish, reptiles, amphibians, mammals and more than 190 species of birds.

[4] Many of the birds are international migratory shorebirds which breed during the northern summer months in Arctic regions,[2] making Boondall Wetlands globally important for these long-distance visitors.

[5] The wetlands form part of the Moreton Bay and Pumicestone Passage Important Bird Area.

[6] Some of the migratory species include the Mongolian plover, eastern curlew, grey-tailed tattler and bar-tailed godwit.

[7] Other birds seen the reserve include pied oystercatchers, beach thick-knees, darters, little black cormorants, white-faced herons, Australian white ibis, great egrets, grass owls, whistling kites and brahminy kites.
