Some more excellent photos. Really good sightings.How did you manage to get the jay ![]() I occasionally see them, but they are very difficult to get a photo of. The coot chicks are gorgeous.

hahaha tabatha. turns out there are 30 nest sites but not all used. they reckon about 12 females nesting but some males are polygamous looking after 2 or even 3 nests. |
