Illawarra Birders

If you are looking for lifetime activity that will stimulate your mind and body:

Birding is a hobby for all ages, and you can start at any age
All you need to get started is any pair of binoculars
All activities are enhanced by being aware of birds; whether it be sitting at home, taking a walk or on an African Safari
It can be done alone or as a social activity
You can become involved in citizen science and conservation programs

Check our activities itinerary and come along. We also organise local Birding excursions, regional Birding camps around NSW, and interstate and Australian territory trips!
