Tassie isn't the only one with a backfence - he just has more birds over his than I. Anyway, from the patio I look down into a willowy glen that throughout winter has been virtually devoid of birds until now. Taken this morning, I think this must be the Yellow Wattlebird that I have shot fequently at other locations. This is the first time I've caught it in flight like a wind in the willows.

Wow, nice shots Tark, love em.
I did not realize how long their tail is.
Thanks for sharing mate.
P.S Over my back fence is getting a bit quiet now as the water starts to dry up, I will have to wait until the wet season again I think.
HI Tark
Nice shots mate they are not the prettiest of birds.
Thanks Tassie and dingo - yeah, they do look like a dart in flight, don't they.
.
P.S Tassie - Have you considered diverting all your grey water to over your back fence mate? :)

Keep 'em coming, Tark. Great shots of this huge Wattlebird. Must get back to your part of the world......
