Must've been a quiet day at the swimming spot or are the pittas getting cheekier?
Love the boatbill. I didn't know Australia had any. Super photos of the others too.
Starting off at a hot pace, I see Tony.
How are you going to keep it up?
That first Pitta shot (singing its head off) is remarkable.
Boatbills are beyond my knowledge.

Hi Russell: Just one of our little marvels.
