This area has an extensive array of bird species including the Rufous Bristlebird. Patience is the key to watching these elusive birds and this in turn adds to their intrigue. There is a good number of them in the local heathlands and usually they are heard and not seen. Shy and Black browed Albatross are common in season and are easily observed from the cliffline.
