Waterbird city

Waterbird city (Threskiornis molucca, Phalacrocorax sulcirostris)

You need to look closely, but there's quite a lot of cormorants roosting in the trees. I think they're mostly Little Pied Cormorants with a Little Black Cormorant near the Ibis on the water.

We'd got back to what I called the 'Jacana' Lake, as the lily pads with the Jacana are at the far end. I sat on a shady bench while Ken went off exploring.

Amazing wetland forest, and I see ... hmmm, 5? 6? cormorants. I'm probably missing some.
