After the BASNA AGM at Sydney Olympic Park yesterday I headed down to Triangle Pond, near the waterbird refuge. The water levels had been low a few weeks ago and others had seen the resident Spotless Crake, so I was hoping to duplicate this and maybe add on a Lewin's Rail. Unfortunately, due to the heavy rain last weekend, the water had risen, and a motorbiker was practising his turns up and down the straight behind the pond. Surprisinly, the Spotless Crake did come to the edge of the papayrus and allow me a good look :) Fantastic end to the day (but the Lewin's Rail still eludes me...)
