They are widespread throughout Australia , but it does not mean you necessarily easily observe them. We were even more delighted as we followed some cattle tracks to discover not only more bird species than we had hoped, but also more Yellow-billed Spoonbills. Yellow-billed Spoonbill family.

The egret family were represented by the Great Egrets , Intermediate Egrets and a lone Cattle Egret. Cattle Egret. Although we are unlikely to be able to move freely this year beyond Western Australia we are lucky that we have an excellent variety of bird species in the local area. There was also a Black-necked Stork.

The Pheasant Coucal family have moved on from the last place that we observed them. Attempting a photograph of the cattle beside the highway was pointless, because you only got photographs of locusts! There have also been White-winged Black Terns amongst them. It did not matter which way you looked there were thousands of locusts.

In celebration of the upcoming I and the Bird look at the heron family I invite you to consider the White-faced Heron ! What is interesting about the Cattle Egret is that it is that rarest of things, a seasonal landbird migrant. They are generally solitary and pretty easy to see in the countryside.

Another significant flock of birds were to be found “caged” in!
