Our precious Lakes

The Gippsland Lakes are recognised and protected internationally under the Ramsar Convention, mainly for their importance to migratory waterbirds, but also for many other environmental features. This video explains the importance of the Gippsland Lakes and why we value them so much.

Martin Richardson  sent through the link to a short video on Youtube - put together to describe the Ramsar values of the Lakes in accessible language, with colour and movement.
