Alerted by the call, then saw a pair of Red-tails alight in a eucalypt behind the cottage around 7:15am today at "Tiddalac". First ones that have actually landed here. Normally, just seen flying overhead.

Red-taileds at Upper Lockyer along Murphys Creek
Red-tails have been hanging around "Tiddalac" since late June and I now see them daily. Up to 20 birds have been seen, but lately around a dozen. Discovered yesterday that they camp in the large eucalypts around the neighbour's dam.
Always good to see - and hear. One of my favourites ever since they started visiting our survey area annually in the early 90's.
