Perth has some great lakes and nature reserves within 1 hour from Perth by car. A bonus for bird watchers at these locations is that the birds can often be quite relaxed when you show up with binoculars or a camera as they are used to the many people who go to these great outdoor places.
Lake Monger - a great site that usually has hundreds of water birds such as black swans, egrets, grebes, swamphens, hardhead, pink eared and blue billed ducks. Directions: from Perth head north for about 4 kilometres on the Mitchell Freeway, then exit on to Vincent Street/Lake Monger Drive.
