I have seen a pair in the same vicinity several years ago Anthea, and it was
quite a thrill.
However, after spending more time in and around Ballarat, I realised that it's
not uncommon to see a pair of Brolgas feeding in Lake Wendouree. Again, it was
very exciting the first time I saw them but it became quite a routine
occurrence.
I haven't been to Ballarat for at least 3 years and I don't know if they are
still frequenting Lake Wendouree.
Cheers
