| Brief_description |
| This 25 ha seasonal pan was counted only in summer 1992 and winter 1997. The most significant observation was the large number of Redknobbed Coot counted on both visits. Reasonable numbers of Dabchick, Blackheaded Heron and Maccoa Duck were recorded during the winter count, and of Glossy Ibis, Yellowbilled Duck and Redbilled Teal in summer. No threats have been identified. |
