User's notes

Following the path south of the pond, moving in a westerly direction, there was a clump of reeds on the right-hand side of the track. I could hear the call of an Australian Reed-warbler, with the occasional glimpses of the bird. I climbed a small hillock to get a better look down on the bird. This seemed to spook it as it went lower down on the reeds and deeper in. After I sat down it eventually came out a bit more. It was still moving between reeds, pausing to call, before moving again.
