Spent a lovely late afternoon sitting by the water and had some beautiful fly-bys from a number of birds. By far the most graceful was this White-necked Heron:
And a pair of Brolgas were on the far side of the lake:
and later flew past while I was sitting near the crossing
There were a few other birds around:
Little Corella feeding near the road next to the crossing
Whistling Kite flying in the late afternoon sun over the lake
White-plumed Honeyeater who continually dunked themselves in the water having a bath
White-necked Heron getting a late afternoon snack
One of the highlights was listening to the pair of Brolgas "honking" just before sunset, and then doing a fly-by, honking after they had past me.
Happy Birding!
Just a little bit jealous!
