Media notes
Calls early morning from a Pied Shag colony at Orakei Basin, Auckland 30/08/19. A bird had just flown in.
Observation details
At least seven, most standing in the silver dollar gum with active nests. A few single birds diving and flying to and from the tree. One flew in with a fish in its bill, probably to feed young in a nest. I was about 50 metres from the tree on the opposite side of the creek and heard short bouts of squealing and crowing. One set of calls was shorter than others and occurred when a bird flew into the tree.
