Saw the glossy ibis there early this morning.
Also had good views of a Latham's snipe and a Buff-banded
rail.
Wednesday evening we watched a crake for quite a
while (from Ardea Hide at some distance) before deciding it was a juvenile
spotless crake. We couldn't see any stripes - just brown on the back and
grey below. Each time it turned towards us we saw a distinctively pale
throat area. No photo unfortunately. Has anyone else seen one of
these at Kelly's recently?
