Some early season competition for breeding territories.
The Black-fronted Dotterel is a smaller bird than the Red-kneed Dotterel but can more than hold its own in disputes. Both species breed on the local wetlands, including the Red Gum swamps of the plains.
Flame Robins will be heading to higher altitudes shortly. The individual pictured here has traces of orange on the throat, possibly an immature male.
Black-shouldered Kites are sitting on eggs at present. This bird is not in full adult plumage yet but appeared to be tending a nest in a large River Red Gum.

Shedshaker Brewing launches Castlemaine Keg for Good, raising money for community groups "IndyWatch Feed Vic"
Renowned for its range of fresh, handcrafted, small-batch craft beers, Castlemaines Shedshaker Brewing has launched a new community program aimed at raising money for local groups to help them pursue their goals.
Named Castlemaine Keg for Good, the money raised each month will be donated to a nominated local community group, starting this July.
Keep up with the latest food and booze news across the region here.
Locally loved for its fresh beer, local wines and delicious food served in a funky arts space with live music and an eclectic arts program, Shedshaker Director Jacqueline Brodie-Hanns said the Keg for Good is another way Shedshaker is helping the community.
Once a month, well throw a keg on the bar for our Castlemaine Keg for Good, she explains.
People can then visit the Taproom, order a pot or pint of our Pale Ale and pay whatever amount they like as a donation to the cause.
Combining donating to local groups with a lovely cold beer seems like win-win to us!
Shedshaker will donate 100% of proceeds from the keg to the chosen group and let everyone know how much money was raised.
The brewery has selected Red Box Wildlife Shelter as the first donation recipient, a dedicated wildlife sanctuary and rehabilitation site for Eastern Grey Kangaroos and Brushtail Possums. Their mission is to Rescue, Rehabilitate, Raise and Release along with teach Compassion, promote Education and encourage Advocacy.
For our first Keg for Good, we will be donating money to Red Box Wildlife Shelter, who do brilliant work looking after kangaroos and other animals, including those hit by cars or injured in other ways and getting them back on their feet.
On Tuesday 25 and Wednesday 26 of July, from 5pm to close, all donations for a pot or pint of Pale will go to this great charity.
Like many others, we admire Nikki and Scotts dedication to protecting and helping kangaroos and are thrilled they are the first local organisation we can help with this program.
Each month will feature a different local group to spread the goodwill around the community.
