Plumed Whistling-Duck, Wedge-tailed Eagle

Dam on Colletts Island

130+ Plumed Whistling-Ducks with Australian Wood Ducks on the edge of the dam. Largest flock seen in recent months, as the species is absent from many of its usual haunts. Three Wedge-tailed Eagles were over the nearby Collett's Swamp.
