Noisy Friarbird

These are from earlier this year at Kingscliff. They are a bit busy.

Looks nice and sharp Alan. Not sure if you can do something about the small shadow on the back on each image. Just a nitpick really.

[wigz]

Thanks Todd. I looked at that leaf in #1 and shadow in #2 but decided it wasn't worth the effort as the images are cluttered anyway, and I don't have Isac's skills. I might have a go anyway.

busy eating the Banksias wigz! lovely photos. Their head is similar to that of an ibis without the long bill - unusual.

Thanks Isac. I do wonder why they have all that bare skin. Definitely not a pretty bird, although the feathers on the front of the neck and breast form an attractive pattern.

I don't mind that the shots are busy, the bird is in it's natural environment and it stands out quite well.
Is that a lump on the birds beak, or is there some weird aberration going on.
Well spotted Alan, they certainly blend in to their surroundings.

Thanks John, Yes they have a little lump on their beak.
