Brolgas at WTP, Werribee

There were a pair of Brolga's feeding in the paddocks
behind the Austin Road lagoon today. 

After observing them for about 15 minutes, they made their
way over to the lagoon for a quick drink and then flew south over the T-section
Lagoons.

They then landed again near the small "natural"
pond, outside the southern most fenceline where i again watched them feed
and dance for another 30 minutes.

They drew quiet a bit of attention to themsleves, with
a swamp harrier hovering only a meter above the males head, as if considering
the feast that stood before it. The Brolga looked up at it, and it quickly
decided against it. 

I continued watching them through my scope and my heart
sunk in my chest, as i saw a fox appear only meters behind them; the brolgas
oblivious to its presence. I frantically shouted at the top of my lungs,
and ran to the car to honk the horn, in an attempt to scare the Brolgas
away. I dashed back to my scope and the Brolga's continued to feed, but
the fox was nowhere in sight. Looks like i scared the fox more than the
Brolga's! 

Anyway, fantastic as usual to see Brolga's in the area.
Whens the last time Brolga's have been reported in the WTP?
