Crake day
Normally I only find crakeless spots, but not on Sunday. Sunday was crake day. Not one, not two, not three, but four spotless crakes/pūweto (Porzana tabuensis) came out to feed in a pond at Pauatahanui. A new bird for my life list. These native fresh-water swamp birds are so secretive, that we don't actually know how many there are. It is thought they are declining though because of lack of wetlands.
