I hope someone can ID this one too. Sorry I couldn't get a picture of him landed. I cant even say how big he was as he was too far away.
Coastal.
Thank you very much Leiza & Maria & thanks Daniele & others for the ID. I really had heaps of trouble trying to ID them myself. Thanks :)
Hey Leanne. Perhaps it could be a fork-tailed kite, (perhaps black). Checkout the following: http://dwpicture.com.au/picture.asp?pict.... I may be wrong but the pic is very similar. PS Love your work!!!
It's cool James, I appreciate your help anyhow. Thank you for the compliment. I saved for a new you-beaut camera for P.N......now I just need to learn how to use it! Thanks very much for the encouragement :)
I was worried about that. I guess the snail kite is mainly south and north America. You have some great spottings on here.
Thanks James! I just looked Snail Kite up & it doesn't seem to be found in Australia from what I can see. Thank you very much for the suggestion though. I'm lost with these big birds! :) Thanks
Maybe a Snail Kite. Maybe female or juvenile since it looks to have more brown. Great shot!
