Mixed Birds.

 Just a few mixed birds we have seen around our area.

 Australian Hobby (Falco longipennis)
This Australian Hobby was a case of being in the right place at the right time.
 Fan-tailed Cuckoo (Cacomantis flabelliformis)
The Fan-tailed Cuckoo and Noisy Pitta we saw at Bymien Picnic Area in Cooloola National Park.
Noisy Pitta (Pitta versicolor)
For more birds visit Wild Bird Wednesday.

    Hi Neil, enjoyed your bird shots. Hadn't seen a Cuckoo, or gotten close enough to a Falcon to photograph. Well done :D)
