Free-ranging wild kookaburra on Melbourne Zoo Grounds

I have no idea if these ducks were under zoo care or if they just showed up and hung out like the other wild birds. They weren't in a cage, at any rate, just hanging out out in the open.

This little beauty flew into our window. Fortunately it was only stunned. We kept it safe and warm to recover - and it flew away about 30 mins later.

Hudsonian is one with wings up and white rump. It was a vagrant in Victoria in 2017.

Distinguished from Bar-tailed Godwits by the partial white eyebrow; paler upper parts, and in flight a clear black tail and white rump with dark underwing.

6th times the charm. Finally managed to find the elusive Berwick Channel-billed Cuckoo.

Vagrant. Thanks to all the other birders present that day for helping us find it so easily :P

HELLO CHAP
