We saw what looked like a Masked Woodswallow at Cotter this morning, on the lower slopes of Mt McDonald between the road and Cotter Dam. I didn't have binoculars, being out on a bike ride, and the bird was about 30 metres away, but it was the right size and had the black face, pale front, grey back, and white tip on the tail, and in flight it had the wing shape and flight pattern of a woodswallow.
