10,000 Birds

NOVEMBER 6, 2018

Each spread (text and plate) is prefaced with the names of the family (common and scientific names, e.g., ‘Parrots Psittacidae’) and a 1-4 line paragraph summarizing common identification features and distribution. I wish the flight images for the hawks, falcons, parakeets, and parrots were larger.

Following on from last week’s post about Langi Crossing and all that it has to offer in the way of wildlife with an emphasis on crocodiles I thought I should now expand on the birds that you may encounter during a visit! Red-winged Parrots and Red-collared Lorikeets appeared to be constantly on the move. Great Egret.
