Observation details
Lifer! At first glimpsed bird gliding into the vegetation in the pond adjacent to the front pond (The one that had the Painted-snipe). The exact location is -27.434300, 153.147733. It skulked around for a bit. We could only see the top of the vegetation rustling. It the flew into the pond north of the last, and landed in the vegetation there (-27.433722, 153.148182) and walked to the west bank where we observed it feeding. We walked over to this side, snapped some closer shots, and admired the rare bird. It eventually took flight east towards the channel it's been previously seen in... Congrats on anyone who got the bird and good luck to those who seek it!
