Of possible interest for local birders: during a quick look this morning, there
were at least 7 shovelers (4 male 3 female), along with the usual ducks (perhaps
more grey teal than usual).  This species is uncommon on this swamp, although
one (probably immature) has been there intermittently for some time.  At least
one pair of hardhead was present (two pairs have been regular recently).  Also,
a group of three white-naped honeyeaters flew over this morning (passing
through).

Cheers, Richard.
