Hi Margaret,

 

Going by the long tail and the long wing fingers, plus the locality, I would say it is one of the Whistling Kites that inhabit the area. Your earlier bird photos were of a Brown Thornbill but I don’t recall seeing the rump colour this vivid. Was that one also Photoshopped?

 

Cheers,

 

Mark

but, is this enough for an identification?  I confess to having saturated what little colour there was in Photoshop, but would like a little help with this one if possible.

Thank you

JWNR this morning.
