G'day All,
After all the recent e-mails about the paucity of birds at the Jerra Wetlands I thought I would go for a look this afternoon. Not many waterbirds but stacks of other smaller ones around. All up I saw 42 species and a couple of mice in the reeds. Highlights for me were a small flock of Hoary-headed Grebes on the main channel and a lone Brown Quail near the Bittern Hide. There was also a very noisy flock of Little Ravens near the railway end of the wetlands. Spent over an hour and despite the scorched earth policy where the willows were, it was a great afternoon in the sun,
