Hong Kong Wetland Park has a large area to explore along good paths and walkways. The range of different habitat gives rise to good numbers of species. Ecological surveys conducted at the reserve have recorded over 250 species of birds, ~50 species of dragonflies and ~160 species of butterflies.

The lakes and ponds attract many ducks, such as Gadwall, Garganey, Eurasian Wigeon, Northern Pintail and Northern Shoveler. Many species of egret and heron have been recorded. Black-faced Spoonbill, Chinese Pond-Heron, Great Egret as well as many wading birds including Black-winged Stilt, Common Snipe, Greater Painted-snipe and Avocet. In the trees and bushes look out for Scaly-breasted Munia, Swinhoe's White-eye, Sooty-headed Bulbul and Oriental Magpie-Robin. Many other species can be seen with the eBird list showing 279 recorded species to date - see weblink later on.
