Common Again

Two Whistling Kite juveniles have left the nest, but there are still two in the nest at the left of the tree. The parents are still keeping guard.
The young Wedge Tailed Eagle is still in the nest as of today 17/12. Pardalotes were plentiful this day, assisted by a Tree Creeper.
 There were plenty of Rufous Whistlers around.

 This was taken from a long way, looked like a Dusky Wood Swallow, but they don't have a red beak. So I am not sure of the species.
