The four Black Tailed Native Hens were present again, just near the southern 
end of Kelly's Swamp this morning at 0830.  The attached image is poor, but it 
demonstrates their habit of walking with the tail raised - which identifies 
them quickly from Dusky Moorhens or other similar birds.

Large numbers of Purple Swamphens and Coot on the swamp as well.  The pair of 
Back Winged Stilts are still around.
