Description: Jabiru, Brolga, Gouldian Finch, Red Goshawk, Rainbow Pitta and Purple-crowned Fairy Wren all thrive in the wetlands, savannah plains and escarpments of Kakadu National Park in Australia's Northern Territory. More than 250 bird species call this World Heritage-listed park home, but seeing these feathered beauties in their natural habitat can take patience and some knowledge of their behaviour. It's all worth it though, when you see thousands of Magpie Geese thunder out of their placid billabong or strutting Brolgas at their most elegant. Or view nature at its most primal as an Egret plucks a fish from a murky waterhole, holds it in its jaws to savour the moment, and then swallows it whole.
