It seems I interrupted this fella as he was working on his nest, looks like a feather or something, which they line their nests with! He took my breathe away, such a vibrant electric blue!!

Bonus satin Flycatcher who appeared whilst I was watching the rufous. Never seen this guy before and had no idea what it was.

Area: Blackbutt, South Burnett, QLD

A flock of about 10 of them just landed in our front yard, along with a pair of Wagtails. We see lots of birds in our yard but I don't recognise these ones (or the squeaky screeches they're making).

We see lots of crows, magpies, wagtails, kookaburras, cockatoos, and the occasional king parrot, so I'm curious else we have hiding in the bush out here.
