Are these magpie larks

Hi,

Please forgive me if this not the correct place for this post (new here).

I'm trying to identify this pair of birds in my baxkyard in Neerim South, Victoria.

I thought they may have been magpie larks, but wasn't sure because of the amount of white on the breast and the fanned tails.

Any info would be appreciated,

Thanks, Bill

hello Bill

the correct place for ID questions is the Identifications thread further down on the list fo threads

yes, you have Magpie-larks

L bird is male because of the black face, throat and chest

R bird is female - visible white throat
