Here's a final selection of photos from our time at Middle Lagoon in August 2012. I have never seen corellas look so grubby!

Yellow silvereye in the mangroves |

Also seen readily in the mangroves was Broad-billed flycatcher (above and below) |

I reckon I had a great shot of the male Mangrove golden whistler but there was no card in the camera AAARRgh! I went back for it but only found the female. |
|
Why did the Long-tailed finch cross the road? |
|
Singing honeyeater (above) and Brown honeyeater (below) were the predominant smaller honeyeaters at the time |
Bird on!
Hi, I've also wondered about filthy corellas and was told it's due to breeding. I think SC Cockatoos breed in the same kind of hollows and they are never as grubby.
