The easiest way. Among others, we saw: Wandering Whistling Duck, Hardhead, Green pigmy-goose, Au Grebe, Darter, Little Pied Cormorant, Black Cormorant, Great Cormorant, Jabiru, Jacana, White-necked Heron, Eastern Great Egret, Straw-necked Ibis, Yellow-biled Spoonbill, Brolga, Sarus Crane, Black-fronted Dotterel etc on the billabongs. We also managed to see Gouldian Finches on the edges of a couple of ponds.
I have been using the Malcolm Morecombe iPad app Australian Birds. The ability to filter by region and bird characteristics and for someone like me with a poor auditory memory, the call recordings, it is just fantastic. Not to mention the portability.
