Toowoomba Waterbird Habitat - Rangeville
Toowoomba Bicentennial Waterbird Habitat is a 19-acre natural habitat and park, designed to mimic natural wetlands.
The park features multiple lake formations including three permanent lakes and a shallow lagoon.
It has many different habitat environments that provide for the waterbirds' requirements to feed, roost and nest. Aspects of the habitat include large areas of grassland, mud-banks, deep and shallow lakes, areas of reeds and islands.
The park's natural habitat beauty, incorporating a central pond, mature trees, wildlife and walkways that circumnavigate the lake make it a popular location for walking, jogging and picnics.
Dotted around the park are informational boards which provide interest for park users. There is also a viewing deck/boardwalk that takes park users over the main lake to offer an excellent vantage point to view the waterbirds.
Please note that feeding of the wildlife is discouraged and dogs are not permitted in the park.
