I joined the Tempe Birdos for their monthly bird survey. After meeting at the wetlands, I joined the group surveying Tempe Reserve.
While the participants were gathering, I photographed this juvenile Australasian Grebe in the first pond at the wetlands –
Now at Tempe Reserve. These Little Corellas were on top of a light pole –
At the area with the boats, we spotted a Striated Heron flying across –
We would see more of this Heron later.
