Only 2..5 mm of rain. Sunny with scattered clouds. Cool southerly breeze. Track drying well with only a few really muddy spots and puddles. Water level falling slowly.

Cody unwell yesterday and during night with gastroenteritis. Fortunately much better this morning but made us late to commence Patrol.
Need not have rushed as did not remove dust cap from lens until the Viewing Platform as saw nothing to photograph.
Unusual for a Sunday morning in that we only saw one family group along the Walk and they were moving so fast that they wouldn’t have seen anything if it had been there to see!
A large group of Bush Stone-curlews were just over the fence in the corner of the Paddock – I counted 14 – and mixed among them were 4 Australasian Swamphens.
The resident Curlews were still present at the East side of the Car Park.
A couple of Welcome Swallows were on the power ling in front of the Medical Centre.

Bush Stone-curlew. Burhinus grallarius

Australasian Swamphen. Porphyrio melanotus

Welcome Swallow. Hirundo neoxena
