birds in lantana

Laurie,
            How right you are.Lantana has to be the best Aussie movie for
years. Unfortunately I don't think it will become Oscar material as it
doesn't fit the stereotypical Hollywood formulae-- it's far too well
written, well acted, and engaging. See it before it disappears from a silver
screen near you!!

         As for the bird sounds, I could hear Southern Boobook and Masked
Lapwing in night scenes, Pied Currawong also.Careful though, you'll
literally lose the plot if you concentrate too hard on the birds.
             Got my best-ever sighting of a Satin Flycatcher (female) at
Rainbow Beach last weekend.The breast colouration is a lovely blend of pale
rufous and apricot/buff, very subtle and appealing to my non-artistic eye.
