That's a nice one. Looks like it might have a waxy tip to one of its wing coverlets. And quite a stout bill for a small bird. Some sort of seed-eating bird?

I need to get a good Australian bird field guide. Any recommendations?

Michael Morcombe - Field Guide to Australian Birds. Best illustrations in the business, I find it best esp. when splitting hairs between similar looking species.

Crazy yellowtail black cockatoos playing Top Gun in my garden. These guys really take time out to have fun.

Sadly, have returned to the Mid-Atl, where temps are slated to drop back into the 30's this weekend...
