Everyone remembers the butcher bird by its name skills but really this one in particular..the Pied Butcherbird should be far more remembered for it's wonderful fluting call !
I have them everywhere and love to wake up to them , nice shots Jeanne.
That the water is still moving in the birdbath from the Lorikeets makes that an even better shot for me. Love it!
I agree, the call of the Butcherbird is very tuneful. My mother would whistle back to one of our local birds and it would come and land on the fence next to her - a special memory. Very sharp shot on this bird with wonderful focus on the eye and beak. Well done!

Nice Jaytee, the Lorikeets look like they need a good towelling off.
