Anna's Reservoir

Anna's Reservoir Conservation Reserve is a small but ecologically significant protected area in the Northern Territory of Australia, covering approximately 9 square kilometres. Established in 1980, the reserve centres on a historic artificial reservoir and surrounding semi-arid woodland habitat. The site provides critical water resources for wildlife in an otherwise dry landscape, supporting a rich array of bird life and native fauna year-round. Located within the Top End transition zone where monsoonal influences gradually give way to drier interior conditions, Anna's Reservoir serves as an important refuge for species that depend on permanent or semi-permanent water during the long dry season, making it a valuable component of the Territory's conservation estate.
