We stopped in at the Mother of Ducks Lagoon to have our morning tea.
It is a lovely spot with a picnic area, amenities and a nice walk out to a large gazebo to watch for birds. There are lots of birds. What we noticed this time is that there are a few caravan sites and even a book exchange. Lovely peaceful spot off the highway.
In contrast to other reviewers, by November 2021, the lagoon had filled and was most attractive, with quite a few birds observed even though we visited in the middle of the day, rather than dawn or dusk.
The toilets were clean but sagaciously hidden from the picnic facilities.
There was a good map.
A credit to the Guyra community, who by the way are hardworking and produce export income for Australia as well as helping to satisfy our need for food and fibres.
This is not a lagoon or even a lake but a canal and despite this it was good to see a few birds flying/walking about. From the viewing platform it can be seen what was once an enormous lake area and today it may be a nature reserve however it is a pity to see what man has done in the past.
As the ‘Mother of Mud’ reviewer said below, this is not a lagoon of water anymore. After recent rains there was a little water but mostly just aquatic weeds as far as the eye could see from the viewing platform. We visited late afternoon but didn’t see or hear a single bird, turtle, or lizard. Very sad.
Lovely place for a walk, or picnic. Beautiful scenery and lots of wildlife. There are bbqs, tables and shelters and off street parking.
