    Default A few More Aussie Birdies

    Here's a few more birdies I managed to capture this morning ...

    A Lewin's Honeyeater


    A Butcherbird. These guys are similar to our Magpies and, like Magpies, attack humans during baby season ... which is just ending now. I was shooting the Honeyeater when I heard this 'warning' (Butcherbirds give you warning as they attack) and seeing as I ignored him completely and carried on taking my photo, he swooped me so close I could feel the air whiz by me!


    These next two I can't identify yet. They may be juveniles of some sort.

    Awsome bird shots MA! The last one looks like one of your robins although I wouldn't have the faintest idea!
    #2 reminds me of our Eastern Kingbirds...especially how you descrive them. They are a bunch of bullies here too!
    You have such a great variety of different birds although I'm sure you say that about us in North America!
    Did you use yor external flashwith these? If so...I gotta figure mine out ASAP!

    Great photos M.A.! Birds are cool creatures but I am prejudiced.
