one for your thinking cap (you tell us)

We thought we should post this photo of a mainly terrestial bird to let you tell us what species you think it is.Found in Australia,it is encountered sometimes in small flocks,but heard calling mainly at night.This,of course is a juvenile after fledging,but we have posted a photo of an adult previously.

Bush Stone Curlew! What a very cute bird and a nice photo - i hope for its sake there aren't any foxes in the area...

That's a Bush Stone Curlew all right! ;) I've never seen a baby one before. If you're wondering how I recognised it easily, look to the left of this post. :'D
