I haven't seen any of these for quite a while, but
there were 6 Cattle Egrets in the willows as I paddled the eastern shore of
Weston Park late Saturday morning. There was also a good sprinkle of
Darters, Little Black, Little Pied and Great Cormorants in the vicinity as
well. A Darter tried to unseat a Great Cormorant from one of the white
poles in Orana Bay, but despite having its feathers ruffled from the
physical contact the Cormorant held firm. Over in Accacia Inlet there
was an Australasian Grebe looking quite striking in its breeding
plumage. Back on shore about 15 - 20 Y/F Honeyeaters passed over heading
east.
