The pair of WFCs was active between 3pm and 4pm this afternoon (Saturday).  Their position was near the inrersection of Uriarra and Coppins Xing roads.  As you drive from Canberra, they were on and near the fence on the right (north) about 100m before the Coppins Xing turnoff.  It is a grassy paddock containing a creek with several water holes or boggy grass patches.  There is also a dam about half full.  So, there are patches of normal terrain for WFCs, although I did not see either bird near the wet patches in the period I was there.  They were mainly on the fence or on the ground near the fence and flew several times into the nearby eucalypts.
