User's notes

First ones seen were a pair near the Tralee Street pond. Next after our walk, on our way out a drive for a quick look at the Couranga Cres pond the family of 4 (adults with 2 new chicks) were seen on the approach to the pond. Have only put pics on of the family. Last a single one seen on our way out on Couranga Cres near the old house.
