The Greatest Show

KAKADU prepares to host one of the greatest natural shows on earth Nature lovers from around the world are planning to flock to #Kakadu #Bird Week for what is regarded as one of the “greatest natural shows on earth”. With the dry season at its peak and the wetlands receding in advance of the arrival of the monsoon rains, Kakadu’s remarkably rich variety of birds and wildlife are at their most visible and active. 

The region is home to over one third of Australia’s bird species and whether it is graceful sea eagles ‘fishing’ on Yellow Water Billabong, the remarkable ‘Jesus Bird’ seemingly walking on water, or local favourites such as the Jabiru and the tiny, vividly beautiful, Kingfisher birds, Kakadu is Australia’s most spectacular location for lovers of exotic birds. 

The Festival is being held from 29 September – 7 October and a packed itinerary of events is designed for both dedicated bird watchers and lovers of spectacular natural habitats. A prime vantage point to view Kakadu’s wildlife is on Yellow Water Billabong, at Cooinda. Yellow Water Cruises and Kakadu Tourism will be offering visitors exceptional opportunities to get close to Kakadu’s bird life during the special week.
