A big tern day at the Western Treatment Plant (Werribee, Vic) today (with
John and Shirley Tongue and family):

 

Caspian, Crested, Common, Whiskered, White-winged Black, Little, Fairy.

 

[I suspect there aren't too many individual sites around the world where one
can see 7 tern species in a day.]

 

Other good birds today included Great Knot, Pacific Golden Plover, Lewin's
Rail, Banded Stilt, Banded Lapwing, White-necked Heron and that remarkable
number of Freckled Duck at Walsh's Lagoon (estimated, on the wing, at well
over 50).
