Ever wanted to fly like a bird?
You can now take a ‘Virtual tour’ using Google Earth which allows you to explore Galada Tamboore as if you were soaring above it like a Brown Falcon. In a few minutes you can virtually whiz up the gorge and soar above the grasslands seeing features that would take hours to see on foot. The virtual tour includes links to the results of Friends of Merri Creek’s birdwatching and includes other important information for you to plan a real-world visit .
