Jerrabomberra Wetlands

As always, more to see at the Wetlands.

Three Dollarbirds (I got change out of a fiver) this time, the two adults looking much the same, with the blue neck, and the juvenile, without the blue.

A brief glimpse of a European Goldfinch with lots of colour, and baby Little Pied Cormorant in the trees.

A rare sighting for me anyway of a pair of Little Black Cormorants, the male with the so-called “nuptial” white plume behind the neck. The look very seal-like.

The Latham’s Snipe obliged by being on my side of the water for the first time.

Lastly, a juvenile Pacific Black Duck learning how to fish, and a Spotted Dove.

  1. Very nice to capture the pair of Little Black Cormorants in their nuptial dress and excellent shots of Latham’s snipe.

    Cheers, Caroline
