Bird Webcam in Perth — Live Online Streaming
Perth — Capital of Western Australia
Perth is located on the west coast of Australia, on the shores of the Indian Ocean. It is the largest city in the state of Western Australia with a population of around 2.1 million people. The city sits on the banks of the Swan River, which divides it in two and creates a unique ecosystem for local wildlife.
Perth's climate is Mediterranean: hot dry summers and mild wet winters. The average January temperature reaches 25°C, while in July it drops to 8°C. These conditions attract many birds that find food sources here year-round.
Bird Biodiversity of Western Australia
Western Australia is one of the most biodiverse regions on the continent. The region is home to 550 bird species, making it a true paradise for ornithologists and birdwatching enthusiasts. Many species endemic to the region are found nowhere else in the world.
Perth's urban environment is home to rainbow lorikeets, pink cockatoos, Australian magpies, honeyeaters, and many other species. The bird bath shown on the webcam attracts exactly these urban birds — they come here to drink water, bathe, and feed.
Bird Bath in a Perth Garden
The camera is installed in a garden area of Perth and is aimed at a specially designed bird bath — a small raised water feature. This is a typical setup for attracting wild birds in urban environments. The bird bath is surrounded by green plantings: shrubs, grasses, and flowers, creating a natural habitat for the birds.
The organization Access Wildlife installed this camera to observe bird behavior in real time. The live stream allows you to see how wild birds interact with each other, drink water, and bathe in the bird bath.
Kings Park and Green Spaces of Perth
Perth is famous for its parks and green spaces. The most well-known is Kings Park, one of the largest urban parks in the world, covering over 400 hectares. It features more than 3,000 species of native plants, creating ideal conditions for birds to nest and feed.
The Swan River and its tributaries form an entire network of wetlands inhabited by waterfowl: swans, ducks, and herons. Within the city you can also spot Australian pelicans, black swans — the symbol of Western Australia — and many other species.
Climate and Seasonal Bird Behavior
Perth has distinct seasons that influence bird behavior. In summer (December–February), temperatures often exceed 35°C, and birds actively seek water to drink and bathe. During this time the bird bath is especially popular among the feathered visitors.
In winter (June–August), temperatures drop to 8–18°C and the rainy season begins. Many birds migrate or change their feeding patterns. In spring and autumn, you can observe courtship displays, nest building, and migratory flights.
Birdwatching in an Urban Environment
Perth is one of the few major cities in the world where wild birds feel quite comfortable. The urban environment provides them with plenty of shelter and food sources. Bird baths and feeders in gardens have become an integral part of the cityscape.
The bird webcam in Perth allows you to observe this process in real time. You can see how different bird species take turns at the bird bath, how they interact, and how they respond to weather changes.
What You Can See on the Camera
On the Perth webcam you can see a bird bath — a small raised water feature surrounded by lush greenery. The camera captures the behavior of wild birds: they come to drink water, bathe, preen their feathers, and interact with each other. Around the bird bath you can see shrubs, grass, and flowers — a typical Perth garden landscape.
The live stream runs in real time, allowing you to observe birds at different times of day. Bird activity is usually higher in the morning and evening, though during the heat of the day they also come to the water. At night the camera shows a quiet garden, and occasionally nocturnal species may visit the bird bath.
