Where can I see the Brolga

The Brolga is a large, long-legged bird that is found in wetlands throughout Australia. It is known for its graceful movements and distinctive dance rituals.

‍

The Brolga is a shy and elusive bird, so it can be difficult to see them in the wild. However, they are worth seeking out, as they are one of the most beautiful and graceful birds in Australia.

‍

Brolgas are herbivores, and their diet consists mostly of aquatic plants. They use their long legs to wade through the water in search of food, and they can also dive under the surface to collect plants from the bottom of the wetland.

‍

Brolgas are monogamous birds, and they mate for life. The male and female work together to build a large nest out of sticks and grass, and the female lays a clutch of eggs in the nest. Both parents share the responsibility of incubating the eggs and caring for the chicks.

Brolgas are listed as “near threatened” on the IUCN Red List, due to habitat loss and degradation. However, they are still common throughout most of their range, and they are not in immediate danger of extinction.
