There was a large wader at Kelly Swamp this morning (at 6:15am before drizzle set in)
My (distant flight) photos show a pink base to bill and barred rump.

Pretty sure it was a Bar-tailed Godwit
(need to check a field guide when I go home tonight)

I was in the Cygnus hide, and it flew from right to left on the far bank.

best of luck

Cheers
Mat G
