User's notes

first one seen at Cygnus hide, second one seen in front of Bittern hide. Alerted to the second one when an Australasian Grebe flew our noisily then looked back in trepidation, saw the Rakali a short time later come out then turn around and go back. Two pics also show a Pacific Black Duck.
