Yesterday a low flying wedge-tailed eagle at  Namadgi ( back of visitors center ) approx 1.30 pm  he was very  low, under the power lines at one stage

 

TODAY I think I may have found a 2013 baby bee eater, my reasons are the chest is down not fully colored, and the head is smaller to the adults there was one adult not far away , I really hope one has fledged ( not the best pic) flew off quick

 

Also today appears the cockatoos are enjoying the thistles around
