Lamington National Park

[Blue Cuban]

G'day had a fantastic day at Lamington National Park today.
I only had the trusty old iPhone so pictures are not the best quality.
Despite the quality I'm sure you will be able to make the birds out.
I was pretty stoked to see a heap of Red Brow's and the black and yellow bird.

Nice birds Thanks for sharing

The black and yellow bird is a Regent Bowerbird (and I am sure that you know that)



If you live in NSW or SA (and possibly other states) you are able to keep legally obtained RB's . . but not in the 'Smart' / 'Sunshine' state




Jeff B edits a softbill web-site with pix and vids of softbills breeding in aviary conditions which would be great evidence to use to try to convince Qld authorities that we should not be less equal



Now to get back 'on topic' . .



I have never spoken to anyone who did not enjoy Lamington N P . . and the tourist resort is a highly recommended destination

Hi Arthur.
Thanks for identifying the Regent Bowerbird for me, I had no idea what it was... Lol
As for the RB's pretty sure I've seen these in aviaries in WA but certainly not in the wild.

Not sure what this bird is I'm thinking maybe a Wren of some sort. Couldn't get a good picture most of these are screen shots of little videos I took.

Hi Rich,

I'm going to take a guess and say that the bird in your latest pics is a White-Browed Scrubwren (cockbird).

Thanks Suzanne,
After a quick Google search appears you are spot on...
Not my picture but a clear example of what I saw.
