Most of these birds will be seen along the Bunurong Coast and the ocean side of the Coastal Reserve, but some you can expect to see only within the land boundaries of The Cape estate (for example, Masked Lapwing and Latham’s Snipe) while other species like Cormorants often alternate between the coast and The Cape wetlands.

Marine and Coastal birds are identified in accordance with The Australian Bird Guide. This list has been further grouped into: Seabirds, Coastal and Shorebirds (Waders).
