Wing shuffler (Coracina novaehollandiae)

Oh! Think I've used that description for them before... but that's what they do when they land on a perch.

The following day I was off on my travels again, so we headed off early in order that we could have some time on Bribie Island where Ken had taken me 3 weeks before. Hans and Judy hadn't visited the island for some time.

As we walked along the beach promenade I spotted a lovely Black-faced Cuckooshrike perched in a eucalyptus. As attractive birds with their silvery-white and black plumage.
