Bird Week is a spectacular event that coincides with the dramatic mass migration of magpie geese. These magnificent birds flock to the billabongs, like Yellow Water (Ngurrungurrudjba), to feed, creating a breathtaking spectacle as the waters recede towards the end of the dry season. This is the perfect time to witness not only the diverse birdlife but also Kakadu's impressive array of exotic wildlife, including crocodiles, buffalo, brumbies, and wallabies.
Visitors during Bird Week are in for a treat with expert lectures, captivating cultural events, and guided birdwatching tours. Stay tuned for the full details of Bird Week, which will be available on our website as the festival approaches!
