Last weekend was a busy time down at the plant. A Northern Shoveler has made another appearance and a truckload of Crakes and Rails have moved into the ponds adjacent to the birdhide. Anyone who lives in Melbourne and has access to the plant should set aside a day to visit the place. It is bursting with birdlife. I didn't see the Shoveler but did manage a few of the Crakes and the usual suspects. Thanks for viewing.

Excellent shots George. You know I love those crakes. :-)
Amazing Crake shots and others George. I went there not long ago and I didn't see the Spotless Crake. The Spotted Crake shots were nowhere near as good as your one.
we wanted to go back this weekend but looks like it is going to rain...nooooo!
Cheers, Owen.
Great shots George.

Love the harrier - he looks so clear. The others are really good too, I do like willie wagtails. Not always easy to get a good shot of them though, they are so busy!

excellent series of shots, looks like you had a wonderful day
Wonderful shots - good catch getting the Fsiry wren in song (or chatter). :'D Thanks for sharing.
