Mangrove Grey Fantail

Rhipidura phasiana

Description:

The Mangrove Grey Fantail is "mostly pale grey, with a white line over the eye, a white throat, white bands across the scapulars (shoulders), white lined wing feathers and white tips on the tail feathers. The belly is buff or buffy white." (WA Museum: http://museum.wa.gov.au/online-collectio... )

Habitat:

Flying about amongst the mangroves at the beach, Point Torment, Kimberley.

Notes:

First time seeing this bird! I originally thought it was a Northern Fantail but I identified it with the Michael Morcombe eGuide to Australian Birds mobile app.
