This evening around 6pm, the Black-shouldered Kite was present,
but no sign of the egrets, spoonbill, stilts or Glossy Ibis.
I assume that they're the same birds that have been present for
the last week or two; either I'm somehow overlooking them most of
the time, or they're moving between Kelly's Swamp and somewhere
else - possibly where ever the Painted Snipe is lurking...
In the fading light, a Nankeen Night Heron flew from the left of
Cygnus hide to the (overgrown) shingle bank near Ardea hide.
