As the forest has regenerated many animals have moved in to this habitat. There is a beautiful Noisy Pitta pair who come and live in our rainforest in Autumn and stay until late spring. These colourful birds have a beautiful call. We also see catbirds, black cockatoos, wonga pigeons, white cockatoos, wedge-tailed eagles, sea eagles, white headed pigeons, blue wrens, and numerous other birds.

The female scrub turkey is laying eggs on the mound. The male builds the mound and keeps it maintained constantly building up the mound with mulch from the forest. He protects the mound and makes sure a suitable temperature is maintained for the eggs to incubate.
This carpet python is over three and a half metres long!

Beautiful giant snails are common in the rainforest.
