I took this rather blurry and cropped photo of what I think is a non-breeding male White-winged Triller. Is that ID right?
Thanks

I would agree that it is a White-winged Triller - the eyebrow and beak look right - but my first thought was that it is a female. I thought that non-breeding males had darker wings, but it's difficult to see wing colour in your photo, and I suppose that non-breeding plumage might be variable.
Do you see trillers often? I've seen Varied Trillers, but have never seen White-winged Trillers.

Looks like a non-breeding male. I had a lifer near my house once with a Breeding male.
Cheers, Owen.
Thanks peoples.
This is my first triller as it lives in a wheatbelt town called Latham(WA) which is around 300km from where I live. I had some spare time while at work at took the camera out to see what I could find. Looking for wildflowers but took snaps of this and one of my other faves White-browed Babbler.
Those babblers are so funny!
