Create a Wildlife-friendly Garden
Where in urban Sydney can you…
... Wake to the calls of small birds…
…watch colourful butterflies flutter past your window…
… or young Wallabies grazing on the lawn…
… See a Shy Ring-tail Possum perform a night-time balancing act on the high wires…
… Discover a Water Dragon beaming his red breast by a pond…
… or a Lace Monitor resting in a tree?
Pittwater!
And not just in the National Park. In fact, urban areas beyond national park boundaries have the highest wildlife diversity. Your gardens are essential and enjoyable shared habitat spaces providing homes for Native wildlife.
Native birds, mammals, reptiles and frogs increasingly rely on gardens and remnant bushland in urban areas to provide valuable habitat as development encroaches.
