Hi Kerry, just to show you the difference, this one is a juvenile Grey Butcherbird. (had to go looking for it, is one of my older photosblush)

not all that good, but as I always say, better than none.

thanks for that Woko. i love to learn new things, i had been sick for 4 years misdiagnosed as bipolar found i have ptsd and loaded full of medication, i was barely living , when i was re diagnosed and took off all the meds that where making me brain dead, i had a new lease on life, i went from sleeping 16 hours a day to now i sleep 6 hours greet the dawn now, i have seen kookaburras at dawn greeting the day the arrival of the herons and listening to all the birds.

my love of photography has come back i lost all interest in taking photos plus with shaky hands a side effect from meds didnt help.

anyways enough about me , my brain is alive now and im soaking the world back in,

I hope Shirley isn't talking about my bird, because mine is a "juvenile Grey Butcherbird", there is no doubt.

Kerry, there's nothing like a good  misdiagnosis to muck up your life. You must be bursting out of your skin after dealing with all that crap!

Good on you, kerry. I've found birds & the bush a great antidote to the stresses, strains & strangulation of society.

How good is that Kerry, my daughter spent most of her youth hiding in a dark room. Fortunately that has now been a long time ago. A very good Psychologist , helped. But also horses and many other animals. She is married now, has a great job and is happy and healthy.
