Powerful Owl & Ground Cuckoo-Shrike

Post by Mick Atzeni »

Russell Jenkins and I saw a pair of Ground Cuckoo-Shrikes on the West Meringandan sports oval, and then a Powerful Owl at Highfields Falls this morning.

Both lifers for Russell - he was particularly pleased with the owl which has eluded him for 20-odd years. Both species also now in his photo collection!
