On Sunday July 21st we spent a couple of hours in the Melbourne Botanic Gardens. We had seen a large group of Little Ravens on the journey in, and soon had an Australian Raven in the gardens. A Red Wattlebird soon followed and we got close views over a morning Devonshire tea at the tea house. The stop for tea proved to be very beneficial when I noticed a group of Rufous Night Herons just across the waters of the Ornamental Lake. We also saw several Eurasian Blackbirds in the flower beds and on the lawns. I dipped on White-plumed Honeyeater and Hoary-headed Grebe but did quite well on this short visit.
