Yesterday I was surprised to see Purple
Swamphens walking on the surface of Lake Tuggeranong, sometimes up to about
10 metres from the waters edge, facilitated by a layer of mud deposited
from the heavy rain on Sunday evening. Occasionally, when they would
walk across an area where the mud wasn't thick enough to support their
weight, they would sink into the water and have to extricate themselves
back to the surface or swim back to the edge of the lake.
