Description:Marglu Billabong in Parry Lagoons Nature Reserve is an important waterbird feeding and breeding area. It is also a stopover point for migratory waders, some of which travel from as far afield as Siberia. Nearby Telegraph Hill offers views over Marglu Billabong and a great walk to the ruins of the old telegraph station. The park contains sites that hold significance for the Miriwoong and Gajirrawoong people and is jointly managed by the Parks and Wildlife Service, the Miriuwung Gajerrong Aboriginal Corporation and the Yoorrooyang Dawang Regional Park Council.
Usage Restriction:When you are entering the Kimberley or Pilbara regions, you are entering crocodile country. Two species of crocodile occur in Western Australia: the estuarine (or saltwater) crocodile and the freshwater crocodile. The estuarine crocodile is the largest living reptile and is considered to be a dangerous predator. Freshwater crocodiles are smaller and not as aggressive. Both freshwater and saltwater crocodiles inhabit Parry Lagoons, so stay well back from the water’s edge.
