On wetlands behind Henley Lake in Masterton. Very pale Grey Duck/Mallard cross.

A couple of Mute Swan on main Henley Lake, some Coot, plenty of Scaup. One Black Fronted Dotterel on a little stony island in the wetland area near the viewing tower, and another Black Fronted Dotterel flying over the ponds frequently.
