I made a second visit to Sydney Park in the afternoon after the Greenway Bird Survey. I was on the lookout for the Australian Spotted Crake again, and any other Crakes or Rail that may be around. The day before, I had heard, buy not seen a Lewin’s Rail.
I did not see any Rails to Crakes this visit, but I did hear the Lewin’s Rail again. But it did not show itself despite some quiet waiting nearby.
Here are some of the birds I did see –
Australian Reed-Warbler
Little Black Cormorants
I was pleased to spot this nesting Tawny Frogmouth –
Australasian Grebe
And some more of the Australian Reed-Warbler –
Willie Wagtail
Noisy Miner
