Glossy Ibis - McMinns Lagoon, Darwin Rural Area, Northern Territory, Australia

The McMinns Lagoon Recreation Reserve is situated in 41 hectares of unspoilt wetland, near Humpty Doo in the Darwin rural area, Northern Territory, Australia
It is a natural jewel amongst the Municipality's Reserves. It offers nature enthusiasts and bird watchers alike a wide spectrum of bird life and butterfly activity all year round.
The Reserve holds a comprehensive Bird Sanctuary status and contains one of the largest varieties of flora and fauna habitats in the Northern Territory.
The Lookout is a well kept lawn area with picnic tables and a light at night for people to relax and unwind whilst looking over the scenic lagoon. A very popular lunch spot for many, it is also a favoured location for professional and amateur photographers. A perfect venue for bush weddings.
There are a number of walking tracks including "Scotty's Walkway" that take visitors around the lagoon and through the surrounding woodland.
The Reserve is located amidst the rural properties and winding roads of McMinns Lagoon area.
