Thanks for the acknowledgement Graham, we were both lucky to see it bathing.  
It was closer to 3pm when we saw it.
Regards
Lia

Hi Mark
After you left yes it was there and I got great shots🤗👍❣️ So it was in the 
Casuarinas above the water on the Shopping Centre end of the wall walkway. It 
was diving into the water and then returned to the tree to dry its feathers and 
then go again. This was about 2pm.  In talking with the local guy Alan who was 
the one who first reported on EBird it returns to that Casuarina every day. So 
now I suggest sitting on the walkway facing the southern end (sun behind you) 
with your binoculars should work with some patience. Oh and I must thank a COG 
member Leah from Kamba for helping me with her binoculars and calling me when 
she saw it🙏!
Regards 
Graham
