Perhaps the most uninspiring tick of the trip came at this lagoon, which was nearly full of water and supported a fair few waterbirds. The target was
Crested Coot (
Fulica cristata), but the one or two seen were non-breeders, with no red knobs on the head, and were beyond photography range. Plenty of other wildlife kept up the interest before we pressed on south.

Acrocephalus arundinaceus)
