Observation details
Night heron with dark back and paler wings. Initially picked up in flight with Nankeen Night Herons. Re found once they landed in a tree. Orange eye very obvious. Flew out of trees to feed at 5.42pm and appeared smaller than the other herons and had more rapid wing beats. Streaks on chest and dark but not dark black indicate not a full adult. Lots of adult and immature Nankeen Night Herons to compare with directly.See images taken with iPhone through telescope. Later joined by Nigel Jackett and George Swann at the large trees around the dam mid way across the plains.
