Good Morning

Even though at times the weather was not the best, cloud, fog, fire haze etc, still array of birds around

SOME I dont know the name of so will just put a ?? above them, common as I saw a few of these, anyone who could help with the name would be appreciated, we all have to learn somehow


Scartlets ( numerous around )





?????




Only spotted this pair  ??????????? ducks


Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoo  x 3  Long way from me


Flock of Gang Gangs, same spot 3 days in a row, adult and feeding young


Black Shouldered Kite


LARGE Brown Falcon I have never seen one as big as this, from a distance I thought it was and eagle as it was only a shadow with the light till I moved 



4 Egrets,  One at point hut  ( first time I have seen one there, right at the bridge  last I saw him he was just passed the people fishing on the opposite bank )   one at Tharwa Bridge, and 2 flying 


2 Butcher birds

Numerous Kookaburra's  this one blended in with the rock so well
