Australian Spotted Crake
Goulds Lagoon, Granton
Viewed from start of timber steps on walking track at about 8:00am (same place as Ed Pierce's sighting of a crake two days earlier). I am not an expert on this but, from the number of spots and the fact that the bird had white under its tail, I think this is an Australian Spotted Crake. My thanks to local resident Roger (I think that was his name) for pointing out the bird to me.

Single bird, viewed from start of timber steps on walking track about 7.30am. I am not familiar with this bird but can't make it anything else from the photos.
