Wedge-tailed Eagle
Burpengary: 118 High Rd
Wedge-tailed Eagle (1) Second time in 9 years that this speice has been sighted over our property. Soaring over cattle for 10 minutes. Every Ibis, White-faced Heron + Cattle Egret took to the air. Our smaller birds all fled to the cover of trees. Amazing to watch and the eagle was not much more than tree height.
