Barton Park – 27 June 2023

Compared to other recent visits, this one was relatively quiet in terms of the birds I was able to photograph. I was at the park in the morning from about 9:30 am till just after noon.

The water level was relatively low in the Landing Lights Wetland, and as the mudflats were exposed I thought some Dotterels may be around, but I did not spot any. And this time I did not see any Quails or the Spotted Crake. Nor did I observe any raptors,  except a very distant Kestrel.

Here are some of the birds I saw –

Pied Stilts

Chestnut Teal

White-faced Heron

This Nankeen Kestrel was very distant – hovering over the airport.
