Monaghan Farm offers a surprisingly rewarding birding experience. We share our 517-hectare home with a recorded bird list of over 230 species. This incredible species richness within a relatively small area, is due to the diversity of micro-habitats within Monaghan Farm. The natural grassland, interspersed with pockets of woodland and the riverine habitats that line the Jukskei’s meander, together with maturing planted indigenous gardens all support a wonderful variety of birdlife.
