While paddling around Springbank Island on Saturday I noticed a Swan sitting
on a large mound about 30cms high and about 2m around.  I saw it only from
the water and did not approach too close but I believe it was an active
nest.  Also observed the movement of 100 plus Little Black Cormorants with a
couple of Little Pied Cormorants mixed in moving down the lake towards East
Basin.

Yesterday in some casuarinas at St John Vianneys Primary School Waramanga
there was a number of Weebills & Thornbills, together with a Grey Fantail,
male Rufous Whistler, (seen but not heard) and a White-throated Gerygone
(heard but not seen).

Cheers
