Great-billed Heron – Centenary Lakes Cairns QLD

Hi all My Dad and I were having a quick stop into the Saltwater section of Centenary Lakes and got talking to a lovely lady who mentioned there had been a Great-billed Heron there on Tuesday along the eastern creek (between CL and The Lakes apartments). We wandered over that way to see on the off chance that it might be around again. Got sidetracked looking at a Collared Kingfisher and Black-necked Stork when she came and found us to tell us that she had found it down the other creek! So we raced down along Saltwater Creek and there it was quietly standing/hunting on the bank just where the Freshwater Lake drains into Saltwater Creek. (viewed from the Eastern side looking west). It was amazing how well it blended in with the surroundings and I am forever thankful to Anne (?) for coming to tell us about it! Hopefully get some images on my website asap.
