Geoffrey - I take it you have been photographing recent spring arrivals?

No-one else seems to have reported them yet, and they certainly were not seen or heard on the Bibaringa outing today. Lots of other spring migrants, with many dusky woodswallows and rufous songlarks, several white-winged trillers (not yet at Cooleman Ridge), a pair of leaden flycatchers, pallid, horsfield's and shining bronze-cuckoo (latter was heard only, as was a sacred kingfisher). So most of our spring migrants have arrived, though no reports yet to my knowledge of satin flycatcher or rufous fantail.
