Cormmy
Travelling around the Ravensbourne NP we came to this large dam called Perseverance. Hans had come here in the hope of finding some Rock Wallabies, but they were missing sadly.

There were a few birds out on the water, but I didn't get any good pictures as they were all quite distant, but I could see Australian Pelican, Australasian Grebe and this Great Cormorant, which was the closest.

Not a Lifer of course, as it's the same species we get in Europe, but this is subspecies novaehollandiae, so a sort of Lifer eh?
