After taking loads of blurry photos I manage to get a couple of Red-winged
fairy-wrens while I was in Margaret River. This one was interesting though I
wish I had focussed better as the male behind has scattered blue  feathers
and black lores while in eclipse plumage as described in Rowleys book on
Maluridae.
