Vickie Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 sorry to keep asking for bird ID's but you guys always get it so I keep asking. Crappy pics but the best I could get at the distance it was away I'm pretty sure it's a Flycatcher, Restless or Paperbark? But the colouring seems a lot lighter than the pics I can find online. Maybe a juvenile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripley Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Not an expert but could be a restless flycatcher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripley Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Just had my guess confirmed by a bird expert. Your visitor is a Restless Flycatcher. Here's a bit about them. http://birdsinbackyards.net/species/Myiagra-inquieta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vickie Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 Thanks guys. It seems a lot paler than the pics I saw online so wasn't sure it was the same bird. Certainly matches behaviour description though. I have never seen one before but now am thinking I have probably seen heaps from a distance & assumed they were willy wagtails.
