Brisbane Black-backed Bittern

[Trevor Ford <>]

G'day,

I wrenched myself away from Bribie Island today to visit Brisbane. And 
at the Metroplex complex, looking from the bridge that separates the two 
lagoons towards the"south" lagoon, there was a female Black-backed 
Bittern (we're using IOC taxonomy, right?) on the small island in the 
middle. Unfortunately, it scuttled away almost as soon as I set eyes on it.
Do any of our Brisbane birders know if these bitterns are being seen 
there regularly nowadays? In fact, are they still being seen regularly 
at Sherwood Arboretum?
Cheers - Trevor
