Hello all again,
 
Just wondering if the Black-winged (Pied) Stilts, Glossy Ibis etc also come close to the hides? If weather's good tomorrow I may try for some close views of those...
 
Oh and has the Black-tailed Nativehen put on an appearance of late?? Also going check the sewerage ponds if possible.
 
Thanks,
 
Dimitris
