A great white egret fishes the shallows for dinner.
Mottled spinetails flutter overhead.

Not easy to capture the spinetails!

All those swallow/swifts etc. are almost impossible to catch. You have to be not only clever, but also lucky

This is the last spot with Reliable Cellphone connection until one hits Punda, so we always stop here at length on the way to the Far North!
But we have normally had quite a few teas by that stage of the afternoon...one time in 2010 we were having such a good time that we left the bridge with one of the Dimwits' priceless Zeiss binoculars on the roof...never saw it again!
Anyway, near the bridge on the same trip:

Nice Ellies there RP.
Just over the bridge, we turned onto the Lamont Loop and a few hundred metres up the track, found this slithering across the road.
