Media notes
Recorded at 1545. Calls from an adult female bird on a nest, three to four metres above water level, in a dead tree within the northernmost pond. Surrounded by four other nests, occupied by another Australian Darter, a Little Pied Cormorant and two Little Black Cormorants, she was actively guarding her nest against visits to the tree from other Little Black Cormorants trying to roost, by stretching towards them, grunting, snapping her beak and calling. Shortly after this recording, a male Australasian Darter joined her in the nest.
