I also went to Kelly Swamp today, between about 12:00 and 1:00. As well as 4 Black-tailed Native Hens and 2 Black-winged Stilts, there were also at least 14 Whiskered Terns, and I saw 3 Sharp-tailed Sandpipers (a chap there with a scope said he'd seen 4 adults and 1 immature). Also saw a Golden-headed Cisticola and heard a Little Grassbird and many Australian Reed-Warblers. No Latham's Snipe.
 
For Rob Geraghty: the frogs calling are mostly Spotted Marsh Frogs Limnodynastes tasmaniensis.
