Wildlife

Ditterly provides habitat for an abundance of wildlife species including platypus, wombat, kangaroo, emu, echidna, wallaby, and koala.

There are over 50 different bird species including kookaburra, galah, red crested cockatoo, sooty owl, and eagle. The elusive lyrebird may also be seen by the banks of the Wollondilly.

Every care has been taken to protect the indigenous wildlife and to encourage habitat improvement.

Through the fencing program the natural water courses have been protected and there native vegetation is returning to the slopes and banks

The wildlife corridor running through the centre of the property provides a safe habitat for animals moving between the river and the woodlands.  A variety of native animals can be often seen.
