 Hi Ian,
Yes now looking at the Little Eagle I can see it. I did not go there, not 
searching the under wing pattern, it is apparent now.
Thanks Ian
Geoff

 Hi,
 I have just got back in the land of Telstra out of the bush.
 Thanks everyone for the replies about the RG, when I first saw if on the 
camera I thought it was a Square-tail Kite but when I downloaded them to the 
Laptop and checked in the guide book it convinced me it was a RG. But way out 
of range. I was not convinced especially since there was a  pair with a chick, 
I think Steve Debus can confirm how old the chick is. I think about 5 to 6 
weeks. The female would return to the nest often, but I did not see the male 
visit in the two sessions over two days. I did see the male flying around.
 For those that know Farina the RG nest is about 200 meters from the Buzzards 
nest and there is a Whistling Kites nest in between. 
 At Farina the Black-breasted Buzzard pair, the female was at times sitting on 
the nest and the male patrolling the area around. I thought as she was sitting 
they had eggs or young under 6 weeks old.
 I will attach one photo here and put up a few more on the Face Book page.
 Shirley Cook will Steve be able to see the photos on FB or should I send them 
to him?
