A few from my walk around Lake Herdsman yesterday. It’s hatching season in Perth at the moment and I was lucky enough to see a few babies! This lake is home to many species of waterfowl due to the shallow water and dense rushes.
I found it quite difficult to take photos of moving birds! So I’ve added a couple of videos at the end.
