Dollar in the blue
On our way back home we drove around Blackbutt again and found this Dollarbird near the golf course. Such pretty birds when the light gets them right, but didn't show too well in my pictures.- delia todd

Dollar in the sky
We'd moved downhil a little to the Blackbean day car park. We all wandered about in our own directions and something drew me to go back onto the road. Suddenly a bird flew in and landed on a high branch over the road. I managed this not great picture of my Lifer Dollarbird! They have rather...- delia todd

Bill II
After leaving the forest, Hans decided to go back to Blackbutt for another look for the parrots. En route.... I was lucky enough to get another sighting of an Oriental Dollarbird. The light was better on this one, but still not really showing off his lovely colouring.- delia todd

Dollarbird hawking aerial insects
At this time of the year the bush is deafening with the sound of Cicadas and other insects. Dollarbirds were busy hawking the aerial ones all morning. Shot was a bit high to be really sharp but still shows the captured insect ok- Ken Doy
