Tootgarook Swamp
Tootgarook Swamp in Victoria, Australia is, like so many wetlands complexes around the world, under attack by developers.

Conservationists can learn more here.
Mike is a leading authority in the field of standardized test preparation, but he's also a traveler who fully expects to see every bird in the world. Besides founding 10,000 Birds, Mike has also created a number of other entertaining but now extirpated nature blog resources, particularly the Nature Blog Network and I and the Bird.

Thanks for sharing this, Mike. It’s within about 1-1/2 hours drive from me, but I hadn’t heard about it. I’ve shared it with my fellow BirdLife Melbourne committee members, and hopefully word will spread and support too.
