One of the most commented on aspects of Seagrove is the number and diversity of native birds. This rich birdlife is even more remarkable given Seagrove’s location, just 800m from the busy main street of Cowes. In 2002, before construction of Seagrove began, biologists conducted a survey of the existing birdlife, identifying twenty-nine different native species. In order to protect this important biodiversity, Seagrove's design incorporated a number of environmental features, including the Seaberry Creek wetland, the preservation of large, hollow-bearing eucalypts and the planting of over 50,000 plants and trees. As a result of these efforts, Seagrove's birdlife has not only been protected but significantly enhanced. A total of sixty-six different species have now been recorded by Seagrove residents. |
