Yes I was surprised when I started photographing birds.

And yet we have other similar looking but small differences in other species of similar name.

Went back to see how the Paperbark Flycatchers are doing and was surprised at how much they have grown in only four days. Not long, and they will leave the nest! :-)

Beautiful. What a privilege.
Very nice photos.

They certainly blend in with the tree. Looks like the tree has been burnt in past and colours of bird and bark very similar
How high off ground? Looks low
