In my walk round Yerrabi Pond this morning there were no Eurasian Coots of grebes. There was only a pair of Pacific Black Ducks in the duck family. The coots usually number between 600 and 800. It is odd to see Yerrabi almost empty of waterbirds. Black Swans were breeding ,Dusky Moorhens and Australian Swamphens were still present.The Eurasian Coots never breed there although breeding has been recorded in smaller suburban ponds.
