I spent a pleasant few hours in the afternoon at Sydney Park photographing mainly the bird life.
At the Island Pond, I saw the Australian White Ibis still nesting.
Dragonfly – Eastern Pygmyfly (Nannophya dalei)
Turtle
Black Swans
One was on a nest – on the Island.
There was also a pair of Australasian Grebes in the pond –
In the large pond, there were plenty of Welcome Swallows –
And more Australasian Grebes. Here is one –
I then headed towards the trees to look for the Tawny Frogmouths. I spotted two –
in the main pond, a family of Australasia Grebes had moved closer to the platform.
Here is an adult –
And a chick –
There was also a juvenile –
Back to the chick –
A few more Turtles back at the Island Pond –
Dragonfly – Graphic Flutterer –Rhyothemis graphiptera –
