Black-fronted Dotterels , Magpie-larks and Willie Wagtails ran along the muddy edges where there was evidence of feral pigs. We chose to camp at the far end of Lake Canellan to be as far away from others as possible and to enjoy the bird-life in the area. Ducks were also well represented by Pacific Black Ducks and Australian Wood Duck.

Brown Pelican Pelecanus occidentalis. Brown Pelicans were always present and regularly dove for fish, as you can see in the above photo. In addition to the White-crowned Pigeons there were White-winged Doves that were more tame than anywhere I had ever seen them, Zenaida Doves , and feral Rock Pigeons.
