Copperback Quail-thrush (Cinclosoma clarum)

These birds are quite common in the wheatbelt and Southern Western Australia but are difficult to photograph.They tend to run and hide and you often get a back view.This pair were quite cooperative and allowed me to get close enough to photograph them.

They are lovely birds
