Australasian Bittern at WTP

["Danny Rogers" <>]

Hi,

There was another good bird at the Western Treatment Plant (the Werribee
Sewage Farm, near Melbourne) at the weekend; David Andrew and a
visiting pair of South African birders found a Yellow Wagtail. It was quite
probably the Yellow Wag that was seen in off-limits parts of the WTP earlier
this winter. The good news is that the bird had moved into the bird-watchers
permit area near to the mouth of Little River; it was seen a couple of
hundred metres north-east of the river, on the coast track or in the narrow
band of grass and saltmarsh between that track and the sea.
