Scientific Name: Gymnorhina hypoleuca
Location & Date: The Entrance Oct 2012
Media: Nikon D7000
Comments:
Another of Australia's best songbirds with a reputation for swooping anything that comes near its nest. They are cowards who only attack from behind and a plastic ice cream container with eyes painted on the back have kept many from swooping and attacking.
Comments:
This is a fledgling who hasn't obtained it's full colour.
