Tawny Frogmouth was also recorded. Also at night, about 11pm a flock of waders (I think) was heard overheard. The flock gave a chirrup call like a hyperactive flock of Galahs. My only ideas are Curlew Sandpipers or Red-necked Stints, suggestions anyone ?.
Maybe waders - or had you considered Pink-eared Ducks?  They are quite noticeable at night in many places.

I worked in the Lower Ovens park for a couple of years - I can send you a list of what was there in that time if it's of any interest.
