Hi all, Numbers muddled. Think the other was a Kori Bustard from overseas but happy to be corrected.

I don't think we have Australian Hobby?? If incorrect I can delete this one.

Photo deleted. And I thought I'd gone through every page...

48. Sooty Oyster catcher By Reflex. Shorty if you just delete your sooty, as the numbers will be out if you just change the photo.

Numbers this page still out. Shorty's Sooty Oystercatcher should be 432 whatever bird it becomes; Ricks' Eastern Rosella should be 433; 434 Pied IP is correct; Common Starling by Dale should be 435. First Oystercatcher is #48.

Impressive Tim and quite right. One Brolga flying uppermost at back of flock and a juvenile Sarus Crane leading. The amount of red on the neck is the best indicator as Sarus & Brolga very similar. Of course, that other crane is quite a rarity as I have not seen one yet.

#452 Yellow White-eye (last from me tonight as i will turn off the laptop!)
