Harold Park & Park Dam

Saturday 18th April a.m.
A chilly start to the day slowly warming up to the dizzy heights of 8°C on our arrival at Harold Park.
On the water were Gt C.Grebe,Mute Swan,Tufted Duck,Moorhen,Canada & Mallard, which had four chicks the first we've seen this year.The Coots were on nests & a Mistle Thrush was very obliging posing for several snaps.
 Down the road at Park Dam the main birds seen were Little & Gt C. Grebe,Mute Swan,Tufted Duck & a solitary Common Gull.
