These two have been hanging around together for months. I have only just managed to get them together in 1 frame

Well, you certainly said it. That is an odd couple. How funny, strange funny I mean.

That is the funniest thing I have heard for some time. Well done "catching them" together
Tell me, what do they do???

They fly around together then feed together on the park grassland. Usually about 2 metres apart so no easy to get with a zoom lens. Gotcha ! when they landed on the street sign. If one takes off the other follows. I haven't seen either of them with a mate of their own species.
I found another shot
Yes, unusual, if they mate, maybe they could be called a "Salem" bird!
I've succumbed to the birding bug!

Last Saturday, while I was waiting for the traffic lights to change, I saw an Australian magpie & a noisy miner behaving very much like your odd couple, Sandgroper. I wonder if, at times, there's some symbiotic relationship between individuals of these two species.
