Just a glimpse of paradise

Much tromping about in the Jourama Falls creek forest lately chasing Buff-breasted Paradise-Kingfisher (Tanysiptera sylvia) after seeing breeding pair and an immature bird but only above image of male to display. The remains of twin white tail streamers are obscured. 

Better tale and tail with White-browed Robin (Poecilodryas superciliosa) in the same forest another day.

And also recently with  Yellow-spotted Honeyeater (Meliphaga notata).

Hello, young Yellow-spotted spotted

Came upon new-fledged Yellow-spotted Honeyeater (Meliphaga notata) near Jourama Falls today.

Both parents busy ferrying food for their youngster. No luck in getting direct feeding picture, and quickly lost contact when little one fluttered off down the creek.

Also busy at Jourama, Pied Monarch (Arses kaupi). Top image from today, other from earlier visit. 

Chased after a Rufous Fantail (Rhipidura rufifrons) but missed picture and must make do with above taken on a Broadwater track a while back.
