Friends of Scott Creek Conservation Park Inc

The Park is a significant conservation area and home to many rare and endangered species.

Over 130 species of bird have been recorded in the Park from small honeyeaters, to the large Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoos. Over 600 species of native plants have been recorded, including more than 90 species of orchids. Other animals may be more elusive, but visitors might catch a glimpse of the endangered Southern Brown Bandicoots and Yellow-footed Antechinus as well as kangaroos, echidnas, koalas, possums, snakes, and lizards.

This diversity is due to the Park’s varying habitats – from woodland with thick understorey, numerous creeklines, grassland, and swamps and bogs.

All the photos have been taken by members of the Friends of Scott Creek Conservation Park.

The Park is a conservation area so NO DOGS ALLOWED. Parks where dogs are allowed can be found at National Parks and Wildlife SA websit e.
