Hi everyone,
I did not realise that Grey Butcherbirds are not so common in Canberra. We had a juvenile (?) bird in our garden in Hughes for two months, August and September. He came everyday and gave us a private lesson on his songs and calls. It was brown and not grey at all. We had an adult grey butcherbird in our garden several times before. Duncan identified it as a grey butcherbird for us. The bird fed on leftover food for magpies. He never came while magpies were there but had beaten magpie larks. He left first week in October suddenly. I wonder where he has gone.
Yesterday I saw two Spotted Doves for the first time in our garden hanging around with Rock Doves for a while. Is it a bad news?
