Once you spot them, you will be amazed by their cuteness! While you are on the walking tracks, listen out for other wildlife. You might hear the squawking of cockatoos, the grunting of kookaburras or the rustling of possums in the trees. There is also a good chance you will spot some colourful lorikeets along the walk.
