Afternoon all,

At 1345 hrs this afternoon I saw a male Australian Painted Snipe at the Forde Ponds. The bird was seen in a small wet depression behind the shallow pond obvious from Horse Park Drive and in front of the main pond driving from the direction of Goorooyarroo NR on HPD. It was with two Latham’s Snipe and several Masked Lapwings. A rarities report will be sent to the panel in due course.
