Not sure what the Magpie-lark is doing. Maybe it woke up on the wrong side. Thinking the Crested pigeon is it´s mate. ☺ I saw them when I went for breakfast.

A weird looking bird that feeds of insects and nectar. It has a rounded knob above the black bill. And it belongs to the honeyeaters.  It was a treat to see.

 This bird was also a "write in" as it was not on our birdlist. It was a fine one. It seem to live mostly more south of where we travelled so we were quite lucky to see it!   :)

One bird only did we see. On the other side of the field of course. Only thanks to our guide were we able to see it.
