Just had one of the strangest but most fantastic experiences....was
talking to a friend on the phone when one of the rarest Australian
birds landed on a branch less than five metres from my study
window....a Square-tailed Kite seemed to be interested in the
bird-bath and after about ten minutes it landed on the ground then
flew-off. I'm almost wondering if it 'dropped'-in to say hello, weird.

Have a look at this image, might be the same adult that attempted to
nest close-by last September.
