Please find attached some images from the Kearny Marsh over the past weekend.
The Common Moorhens (above) have been putting on quite a show and have been seen and heard throughout the marsh.
Least Bitterns have been found in several locations and I was finally able to capture one with my camera ("on the jump").
The water level is dropping and, as a result, mudflats are now exposed and awaiting the influx of migrating shorebirds.
Ron's Bittern and Eastern Kingbird images follow.
