The feather detail in those last two is just amazing.  Beautiful BOP shots (as usual) smiley.  Thanks for sharing.

Lovely photos; was it chasing the Galahs?

Thanks, Ruby.

Thanks, Lachlan. I did think that at first but he didn't seem to attack, i think he was trying to stay away from the ravens.

Good shots! Great to see size difference compared to the galahs. They would not chase parrots, Whistling Kites will take fish, reptiles, waterbirds and scavenge or pirate from other raptors.
