Comment | Sat near some casual water in a bag hide waiting to see what would come along and this bird was a regular visitor. Unsure if it's a male or female but I'm sure it's an immature bird by the two tone feathering and the yellow at the beak near the eye. I thought it was interesting in how it flattened its head to get water into its beak. Taken on an overcast day. (Moderator note: Grey Currowongs don't show sexual dimorphism so it's not possible to determine sex in the field.) | ||||||||||||||||||
