Hi all
The Dollarbird was present again this morning (31st May) from 9:20 - 10:05am
(when I left at 10:05, it was still there) on the north western edge of the
lake, perched on a dead tree in a dried out part of the lake.
I called my brother, who came out with dad and a camera, albeit not a very
high-powered one, but did manage a record shot which he has kindly posted
online at

Other birds present included two Australian Hobbies, a Great Egret (or Eastern
Great Egret, as it is now apparently), a Brown Goshawk and good numbers of both
wattlebirds. A Moaning Frog was also heard for a while
Apologies for slightly delayed notice, my internet has been misbehaving as a
result of the thunderstorms that are hanging around.
Cheers
John Graff
