Re: Autumn road trip to four Nat Parks - in rain or shine

Enjoying your adventures as always and pleased that you're becoming quite an accomplished birder :clap: However, your 'nyalas' look to me to in fact be kudu bulls :whistle:

Looking forward to your MZNP adventures, as it's one of my most favourite parks :popcorn:

Re: Identification Help - LBJs

Is it possible that it could be a leucistic weaver? :hmz:

snail ID help needed

Does anyone know what sort of snail this is? Seen in my garden in Darling in early December 2024.

Re: Identification Help - General Birds

Another that I'm unsure about, possibly a fiscal flycatcher? Seen along Darling Hills Road in January 2024.

Re: Identification Help - General Birds

I not sure just what bird this is. I think that it might be a (female) southern black korhaan? It was very far away and the photos are considerably cropped. Seen in WCNP in January 2025.
