23.01.2022 Yellow-tinted Honeyeater. A bit shaded but shows the features of this northern honeyeater.

21.01.2022 HOODED PARROT. Not a recent photograph but brightens up the page. Fergusson River NT.

21.01.2022 ORIENTAL CUCKOO. An uncommon visitor to northern and eastern Australia from Mongolia, China and Japan. Other migratory members of the cuckoo family, Eastern Koel and Channel-billed Cuckoo breed in Australia but Oriental Cuckoo is a non-breeding migrant. This juvenile was frequenting a garden in Katherine NT.
