The first one is hopeless as a photo but records that I finally found a Nankeen Night-Heron. It roosts in a tree beside the bakery and has apparently done so for years!

I've been quiet recently!
This is mainly because I have shingles and moving around is quite painful. As is sitting at a computer. Hopefully I am getting over it so here are a few photos taken in December.

The first adult Pacific Gull I have seen here: all the others have been immatures. Note massive bill and black band on tail.
This is a juvenile Brown Songlark. A very unusual species in East Gippsalnd and the first eBird record in the Mallacoota area. (The little one in the background is a Hosrfield's Bronze-Cuckoo.)
A flagged Australian Pied Oystercatcher (#85).
An orchid!!! Dipodium punctatum.
A thoroughly confused Xanthorrhea resinosa!
The bird prowling in the grass is a Swamp Harrier - the first I have seen down here.
Sunrise through the smoke.
Cape Conran flies! I have counted 184 in this image, and reckon I had a similar number.
A sequence from Lakeside drive.
