Huonville, Tasmania, about the size of a silver gull, first though Black Faced Cuckoo Shrike, but has a solid black head, second thought Grey Buthcher Bird, but again whole head is black and not enough variation in wing colours. Second time I have seen, last year 3 birds in flight over home, no camera, today was very close, no camera, and moved away when I came back with the camera. Fair way off, and heavily cropped. Any ideas thanks ?
A Black Faced Cuckoo-shrike.
I agree with NathanY, sometimes the angle of the head makes it so you can't see their grey top or their black mask covers more of the head area than than others making it appear to be solid :)
Thanks Nathan and Cassie, hopefully will be back fo a better photo soon.
