Observation details

Perched in the trees near the path briefly, then flew across to Long Beach. A few minutes earlier, I’d had distant views from the airport entrance, so I was pleased to see it better at the pond. Life bird! Thanks to Julian for posting it on the RBA, and to Aidan for finding it yesterday.
