With the help of my son we identified the following birds that we saw. Australian wood duck; grey teal; pacific black duck; Australiasian grebe; rock dove; crested pigeon; bar-shouldered do
ve; Australasian darter; little black cormorant; eastern great egret; cattle egret; Australian white ibis; 
straw-necked ibis; black-shouldered kite; brahminy kite; collared sparrowhawk; swamp harrier; wedge tailed eagle; nankeen kestral; brown falcon; purple swamp hen; dusky moorhen; Eurasian coot; black-winged stilt; black-fronted dotteral; masked lapwing; little corella; cockatiel; rainbow lorikeet; laughing kookaburra; superb fair-wren; red-backed fairy wren; variegated fairy wren; white browed scrub wren;
