The annual rainfall of about 1350mm falls mostly in the first 4 months of the year- our 'wet season'. As dogs, cats and hunting are prohibited at Crystal Waters, an abundance of wildlife can be observed from close range. Several endangered species can be seen at Crystal Waters, eg the Glossy Black Cockatoo. Some mosquitoes have to be expected during the warm part of the year in early morning and late afternoon. Ticks can be picked up in scrub and tall grassy areas.
Snakes are also part of Australian country life -normal caution is recommended when visiting.
