Im just back from spending the weekend in Bermagui on the NSW South Coast. The true highlight was watching a mother Dolphin and two calves feeding for ages within the harbour at dusk, after seeing a pod of 8 Dolphins surfing waves metres from shore at Wallaga Beach earlier in the day.
Birds seen included Spotted Crake, Latham's Snipe, Brown Quail, Brown Falcon, Swamp Harrier, Whistling Kite, Little Tern, Caspian Tern, Sharp-tailed Sandpiper, Red-necked Stint, Bar-tailed Godwit, Eastern Curlew, Pied Oystercatcher, Little Egret and Eastern Reef Egret. Also a
1.5m long Smooth Stingray.
It seems that the Spotted Crake record may be unusual according to my ENHS annual reports.
Cheers
Marnix
