Long-tailed Honey Buzzard photographed on Dauan

[Richard Baxter <>]

Hello all,
             On Saturday the 20 October our group photographed a Long-tailed 
Honey Buzzard AKA Long-tailed Buzzard or Papuan Honey Buzzard (Henicopernis 
longicauda) soaring over the  hillside on Dauan Island in the Northern Torres 
Strait. 

Long-tailed Honey Buzzard is a widespread and common resident through out 
coastal PNG and adjacent island, thus it's not surprising that it should appear 
on Dauan which is only 5km from the PNG coastline.

BARC sub forthcoming.  First Australian record.

Cheers
Richard Baxter
