Thanks guys

Yes Brian very lucky they were enjoying the first rays of the sun. Rather then  stuck in foilage eating and giving me the usual  auto focus breakdown :)

Very jealous. Fantastic shots of a bird I am yet to encounter. Shows the difference of the males and females very well. Did I mention I was very jealous.

Lovelly pictures.

They was  flock of Red tails around Subiaco and West Perth before Christmas, very unusual I would think.

They seem to be quite rare around the Perth environs these days.

Thank you

We get Redtails come into Bunbury from time to time.

Though normally I see 4 or 5 Whites for every red tail flock, however in last few months virtually every sighting I have had has been Redtails
