Vivien,

Can you please confirm the sighting of a little egret. It is an unusual bird for the ACT.

Regards

There is a wattle bird nest in the wattle overhanging the footpath near the visitors centre at ANBG. I reported it to the visitors centre to try and protect it. Also very young wattle bird seen in a bush in the wattle area. Parents flapping around. Think it's too young to be out of the nest.

At the ponds At Giralang this morning: Grey fantail, Clamorous(Australian?) reed warbler, white faced heron, little egret, Swan on a nest at the road end of the ponds, hard heads, black pacific ducks, coot and swamp hens, superb fairy wrens. Willie wagtail and several LBB's!! Not bad for a Sunday morning dog walk!!
