Removed from the "Signs of Wildlife" mission, as it doesn't fit the description. That mission is for "the bones, fossils, webs, eggs, tracks, and other signs of wildlife" and not the actual animals themselves. Thanks!

Nice shots of a great bird. Welcome. I notice yours are 'black-backed' compared to ours. They used to be 3 species in Aus but now 1.

Hi Distant observer & welcome to Project Noah!
Please can you add the scientific name that Maria has provided so that we can take this off of the "unknown" list. Because we have a global user base & sometimes many different common names for the same species, the system uses the scientific name to link similar spottings - which also means this may come up in the thumbnails on other spottings & more people may take a look & favorite it. Without the scientific name this will continue to show up as unidentified & you may get further ID suggestions from other users.
