Birds of Kalista (revisted)

IMGP9966 IMGP9952 IMGP9961
There have been some elaborate changes to the bird feeding at grants picnic ground at Kalista, Whilst it is undoubtedly been carried out in the interest of keeping the wild birds healthy it does seem a little heavy handed.
Visitors must purchase a token from ‘Grants on Sherbrooke’ kiosk to enable them to enter the fenced Bird Feeding area and obtain a measured amount of seed to be offered to the wild birds. Visitors are not permitted to bring in their own seed nor offer seed or other food items to birds outside of the Bird Feeding Area.
There are no other areas within the Dandenong Ranges National Park where seed can be offered to native birds.
If you have just come to photograph the birds their are plenty still hanging around, looking for a feed..
