The late afternoon light was again spectacular and several of our group again took up spots on the north bank of Lake Anderson to photograph the incoming and outgoing birds.

Masked Lapwing was standing sentinel on the small island in the middle of the lake and caught the sidelight of the setting sun.

There was not much else happening in there air so I waited for these coots to get into a pleasing pose while they swam around in the reflections of the reeds.

Eventually, a few Pacific Black Ducks flew in just in time to make the most of the last few minutes of the light.
