Birdsville War Memorial - Australian Digger Statue maunfactured by J.H. Wagner & Sons.
Birdsville best known for the Birdsville Races and the Birdsville Track is also a very proud inland Australian township and urged on by World War 2 Veteran Mr. Ron O'Sullivan, a frequent visitor to the Birdsville area, the Diamantina Shire Council purchased a sandstone Australian Digger statue from J.H. Wagner & Sons in 2005 for the construction of the Birdsville War Memorial. With careful crating the Digger Statue was transported from Toowoomba to Birdsville and erected onto a cairn made of local stones.
