Nice find, only the tenth photo sighting of the Black-faced Monarch for Canberra & Southern Tablelands Nature Map. There were three sightings from the Jerrabomberra Wetlands from early April and they were also all of an immature bird.

@MatthewFrawley Hi Matthew, Don't get too excited. This is the same bird sighted at Jerabomberra in April. Just late in posting.

Didn't notice the date, so yes, same bird.
