Avian botulism information

Keeping our waterways and their surrounds free of rubbish is an important way to protect our wildlife and precious environment. When visiting parks or reserves in the City, please put your rubbish in the bin, or take it home with you. Dispose of waste sensibly so it doesn’t end up in our waterways.

Together we can ensure our recreational areas are kept in pristine condition. Please do not feed water birds. It can make them sick and dependent on humans.
