Swiftlets streak across the sky
Australian Swiftlet (Aerodramus terraereginae) doing some typical high-speed hawking, above Orient Station today. Several hundred shots for three shaky images.
Black-winged Stilt (Himantopus himantopus), at Mungalla, an easier target.
So too youngish White-bellied Sea-Eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster).
And White-eyed Duck, formerly Hardhead (Aythya australis), at Tyto.
