Seems to be a plague of Olive-backed Orioles at Callum Brae at the moment, I have never seen so many in one spot (over 15 in an hour's walk).

Noisy Friarbirds, Tree Martins, Dusky Woodswallows, White-throated Gerygones (heard only) were the main highlights, with one Shining Bronze-Cuckoo.

Also two juvenile Choughs, which must have just left the nest, being coaxed along by the family. They were learning that being a Chough is all about walking.
