I ventured out to Kellys Swamp
and the sewage ponds early this morning and again while diversity and abundance
were down, I managed to find a female musk duck on the sewage ponds and a
Spotted Crake on KS.
I also saw a bow hunter in full cams and I hope he
was just after rabbits, which are in very high numbers.
This afternoon following a tip off from Michael
Wright of a ‘wader’, I went out to the ‘puddle on the Canturf
site and was rewarded with a juvenile Sharp-tailed Sandpiper.
Fifty meters further along the Monaro highway was a
dead barn owl.
Cheers
