Dr Romesh's Bird Sanctuary is the only bird sanctuary in Brisbane. It is a small sanctuary on a suburban block of land in Moorooka, where I have undertaken an environmental regeneration project to promote native fauna to breed and enjoy themselves. The asbestos World War Two cottage on the property has been converted to an office for the Holistic University Network (HUN) and associated cottage industries, an Art Gallery and Music Studio. The technique I have used is to run water from outside taps to create rock gardens and frog ponds using a technique I have called Cosmopolitan Green Architecture.

This fauna includes several species of bird, amphibian, reptile and mammal. The mammals are difficult to spot, since they are small and shy, but the birds are extroverted and of various sizes, shapes and colors.

Dr Romesh's Bird Sanctuary is open to the public on the weekends along with the HUB Art Gallery.
