i noticed Irish Moorhen had white feathers along side of its wings, two white tail feathers and same as here they have orange bills whereas the coot is all black, has white/grey shield/bill, here the coot has red eyes....
When i google moorhen i noticed you also have Rail's
I have heard of them, but I haven't seen them at the local lake
they are good to watch, almost totally wild they keeping the sheep safe, farmer up the road lost $40,000 worth sheep while John spends $2.50 per week feeding each of the five marremma on the farm here.
