The water level was low, there continues to be sewage inflows, but the marshy wetland areas were abuzz with activity - Ibises, swamp hens, egrets and pond herons aplenty. Little grebes everywhere.
 |
| A bunch of Great Cormorants are nesting at the Lake. its a good place to se all the Cormorants, but no Darters. |
 |
| My first Marsh Harriers of the season as well. |
No large herons though, a lot of Dabchicks and the beautiful Spot billed ducks. I enjoyed watching them foraging tin the waters and preening and sunning on the rocks and shore as well.
 |
| The hyacinth and marshy area was teeming with birds, who were busy feeding among the reeds and in the mud. |
 |
| A couple of Black Kites dozed in the sun, while others soared and circled above. |
White-cheeked barbets called from the canopy, lapwings stood stock still and morose, and a bunch of wood sandpipers were too busy to acknowledge my presence.
Sunbirds could be heard in the trees and Coots were noisy and vocal in the water.
A flock of Jungle Mynas came into the trees and caught me by surprise.
It was time to leave, but not before I saw the Powder Puff tree.
