By Bill Stent, on January 2nd, 2019 Hi folks, Bill here
I’m looking for typical from-below photos of Pacific Swifts and White-throated Needletails for a Facebook post for my work at Optics Central. I don’t need Attenborough quality, but more of the view that most casual observers will see from the ground in Victoria.

By Birding-Aus, on January 2nd, 2019 Dear all
The last years I have told a little about the first birds of the new year in Tromsø, N. Norway. This year that will be very quickly done, for even though Riet and I went on a walk, in part . . . → Read More: First bird of 2019

By Birding-Aus, on December 30th, 2018 Whilst I am not trying to start a new conversation on this subject (but found it all so interesting), I now believe the Tawny Frogmouth was killed by a fox. We found the feathers well away from the other deaths and as I said under pine trees. Last night I managed to get a night . . . → Read More: Who is the killer
By Birding-Aus, on December 30th, 2018 Hi Steve
While I do applaud your OBSERVATIONAL Red Goshawk and other raptor surveys in Cape York, we are getting away from my initial concerns of trapping Red Goshawks during their breeding season. I’m sure you have made Richard Seaton aware of my and many others concerns.
As for revealing your active Red . . . → Read More: Red Goshawk
