Very nice shots Ed, I love the Scrub fowl, I have not seen one before.
I was up there on Friday and the humidity nearly killed me,not happy I have to go back up there tomorrow.
HI Ed, great stuff..... nice to see you still sharing stuff! I have never seen or heard of an orange footed scrub fowl and I really live the young dollarbird.
Good catch with the female Koel, I have them at home gong off every day at the moment and I am up at Woodgate at the moment and they are very noisy here too! Hey Tassie, don't forget the camera and stay cool LOL

like the baby scrub fowl ed only seen a adult on magnetic island. went to the park but did not find the owls, oh well always good to look around , bet the common would be wet now
Nice photos Ed, love your Tawny Frogmouths.
Great stuff Ed. I have not yet seen an image of an Orange-footed Scrubfowl yet and you got young and old. :) Well done mate.
Great shots Ed, never seen a Scrubfowl.
