A Photo is only as good as the eyes that look at it.

any ideas what number 5 is?

Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best

Looking at the sizes I would say it's a Square tailed kite.

You've got some great shots there. I love the rainbow lorikeet one. They fly over our back yard all the time but never venture in.

Love the photos, the photo with the lorikeet in it, is it feeding off a flowering gum? We used to have one and the lorikeets loved it, but unfortunately it began to die and so we lost it.

Fantastic collection of birds of prey. I hope I do as well on my birthday, which is coming up. I won't say how old I am either. Happy belated birthday!
