Nice pics! Picked up 2 threatened species in survey this morning at Swan Bay Lake Macquarie. Pied Oystercatcher and Osprey thru the scope do no pics #AussieBirdCount #BirdlifeOz
Photograph of a pair of White-bellied Sea Eagles landing on the upper branches of a dead tree, legs down and wings stretched. They have wide wings but short and stout bodies with broad but short tail feathers. They are coloured in mottled brown and white with dark flight "fingers".
Photograph of one of the immature White-bellied Sea Eagles flying past the author's hide, lit by the late afternoon sun against a blue sky. The bird is a striking blend of white and black with shades of brown, a heavy greyish beak, brown eyes, and strong yellowish feet. The brown colouration indicates its immaturity.
The Aussie Bird Count for 2025 is underway so I went to Pitt Town Nature Reserve yesterday where I was delighted to a pair of immature White-bellied Sea Eagles to my list!

We’ve spoken to the penguins on Heard and McDonald Islands, and while they declined to comment at this time, rest assured they’re taking the matter very seriously.

Had a little visitor this week from a very friendly Grey Butcherbird. Not the most beautiful of birds, but a lovely song.
