Collen Purdon email: "There were seven skimmers seen the first time they were seen at the dam. When Barry Newport and I walked in to see them we found two nests where the birds were sitting. And we photographed the first nest which had three eggs in. We did not go any further as the birds were getting nervous. We only saw five birds flying around although there could have been another nest further along the sandy area." |
