Silver-throated Tit

Aegithalos glaucogularis

An energetic little bird with a tennis ball body and a long tail. Dark above and pale below with a dark gray patch on throat. Usually found in small flocks of its own species, foraging noisily and acrobatically in temperate forests and parks. In the far northern part of its range, overlaps marginally with Northern Long-tailed Tit, which lacks the gray throat patch.

Northern Red-billed Hornbill

Northern Red-billed Hornbill

Tockus erythrorhynchus

A fairly small, slim, long-tailed hornbill. Note the red bill, the pink or red bare facial skin, and the heavily spotted back. The eye is dark in most of the range, but birds in some parts of East Africa show a pale eye. White patches on the wing and outer tail are conspicuous in flight. Found in savanna and thornscrub. Similar to Western and Tanzanian Red-billed Hornbills, but separated from both by the pale rather than black bare skin around the eye. Call is a series of clucks that starts with single notes, then becomes louder and more emphatic, with doubled notes. 

Baudin's Black-Cockatoo

Baudin's Black-Cockatoo

Zanda baudinii

Black cockatoo with white ear patch and white tail panel. Inhabits moist eucalypt forest in the southwestern corner of Western Australia, where it eats seeds from large seed pods of Marri and Karri trees. Unlikely to be observed out on the coastal sand plains of Perth. Very similar to Carnaby’s Black-Cockatoo but with much longer, pointed upper mandible. Calls include mournful wailing cries that are more clipped than those of Carnaby’s.

Sooty Oystercatcher

Sooty Oystercatcher

Haematopus fuliginosus

Heavy-set shorebird with entirely black plumage and long, thick reddish bill. It has a distinctive fleshy red or yellow eye-ring and very thick pale-pink feet and legs. Exclusively coastal, where it can be found walking around on the edge of rocky headlands, on rock shelves, and along rocky beaches on small islands. Typically found in pairs or small groups. Its call is a loud slow whistled "chew", or when agitated a rapidly repeated "squeaky toy" call.
