Hi All,

I visited the wetlands today and the highlights were a freckled duck and several shovelers. Also plenty of small birds ... reed warblers, honeyeaters, finch, silvereye, fairy-wrens, grey fantails etc

A not so pleasant sighting ... I almost stepped on a brown snake just to the right of the Cygnus hide. My first ever snake encounter & I was probably very lucky that the weather is still on the cool side and the snake was moving slowly. No more tramping through the long grass and reeds for me until winter!!

Cheers
Julie
