Illawarra Birders Inc had there Christmas party on Friday night and afterwards went spotlighting. After driving for some time we had only seen a Sulphur-crested roosting high up in the treetops,we thought that we were going to dip out on any thing good but just when we were heading home we heard the bomb whistle of a Sooty. We called the bird in and watch it for around 5 minutes. It was moving from branch to branch with its wings out and at times it fanned it tail as well,we were wondering if the bird may have been a juvenile as we have not observed this behaviour before. Because of the foliage and the height it was very hard to observe any features of the bird. regards Terrill (Illawarra birders Inc) ===============================
