I made another visit to Sydney Park and spent an enjoyable few hours there photographing the birds. Here are some photos –
Buff-banded Rail
This rail made a brief appearance.
Lewin’s Rail
This was not so good. I spotted a deceased Lewin’s Rail on the Wetland boardwalk n the wet side of the large pond. I could see no signs of predator attacks perhaps it dies from natural causes? There had been a big storm the previous evening.
Black Swan family
Australasian Grebes
There was one Grebe in the island pond.
And three in the large pond – one a juvenile.
And hard to spot, was a Dollarbird perched on tree on the island. It has been at the park for quite a few weeks now.
Australian Reed-Warbler
Little Black Cormorant
White-faced Heron
