Assorted birds!

[witchy]

The first is a magpie, the photo was taken at an Eagle sanctuary but the magpie was free to roam..Here it is pinching some food meant for the Eagles!

I'm not 100% sure what sort of bird this is. A type of Ibis I think?

A Willy Wagtail..I love these little guys, they are gorgeous to watch.

Lovely shots, witchy.


The second is a Great White Egret (heron), the last are Oystercatchers :D

Nice shots. Like the 1st one especially. He looks like he says: Don't touch my food

Lovely shots, witchy.

Thanks for that..I just googled both and they certainly look the same as you say. These were photographed in the south west of Western Australia. Does that make a difference?

Nice shots. The Oystercatchers are Pied Oystercatchers...and they look as if they are on a mission :-) !. Also agree witht the Egret ID.

Cool, thanks, I will have to get a book so I can try to ID them myself.

At least I can name those 2 above now :)

At least I can name those 2 above now :)Those Oystercatchers look like they're reinacting a scene from Reservoir Dogs :)

Witchy, I can definitely recommend getting yourself a decent bird guide book! Also you might want to update your profile so that we can see your location!

Thanks for sharing,

Paul

Nice images. Your magpies look much different than those in the US.

Nice shots, they seem to be marching together in last one :-)

[Bald Eagle]

Excellent shots of some great birds. but, Where are the Eagles?

[witchy]

LOL, I do have eagle pics but I have seen what has been posted on this forum and mine don't even come close to comparing!

[Bald Eagle]

I have some Eagle pics as well that i dont consider that great, but, always love to see more, great or not.

[witchy]

I have a couple of OK ones, I will resize and post later :)
