Winged Creatures

Allen identified and photographed some more dragonflies during our wet season - this strikingly marked Yellow-spotted Emerald was enjoying the wetlands habitat.
We are delighted to see an increase in the number of birds on the property, an encouraging sign that our restoration works are providing good habitat. We have had several recent sightings of juvenile Yellow-breasted Boatbill in family groups which is especially pleasing as we have previously only seen this species in remnant rainforest along the creek.
Black Bittern is still feeding in the new wetland and a pair of Azure Kingfisher has also been making use of the perching posts installed prior to the wetlands filling with the rains.
