I had a pleasant and productive morning wandering around the
whole Jerra wetlands complex from 0700-1000 this morning. I even had a long
chat with Sandy the lessee.
Waterbird highlights included two Sharp-tailed Sandpipers,
one Spotless Crake, one Pied Cormorant, one Latham’s Snipe, one Nankeen
Night Heron and three Black-fronted Dotterels.
It was also nice to see returning migrants which included Pallid
Cuckoo and Horsfield’s Bronze-Cuckoo, both Martins, Noisy Friarbird and White-naped,
Yellow-faced and Fuscous Honeyeaters.
