Stilt Reflections

One of the great little hides that we got to visit, the Malbup Bird Hide, in the Ludlow-Tuart Forest was situated in the middle of a dry brushy area, with a large swampy section on one side. The whole area was full of Kangaroos, bush type birds, parrots, doves, kookaburra, as well as ducks and shore birds.

These lovely waders are White-headed Stilts, or Pied Stilts depending on what reference you are looking at were feeding along side the hide.

This is an immature bird, fully grown in size, just does not have its adult plumage yet.
