Cruising low over eastern edge of Tyto yesterday, Square-tailed Kite (Lophoictinia isura) didn't find any prey in the tree tops and floated away east over Ingham.
Pair of birds are regular visitors to Jourama Falls - 30km south - but seldom drop in at Tyto.
Another raptor from another morning, young White-bellied Sea-Eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) shows all the size but not yet the grey and white plumage of a mature adult bird.
