A couple of Greys - Grey Fantail and Grey Shrike Thrush

Saw these two youngish birds at Simpsons Gap. The first is the Grey Fantail. Both sat in a tree above me, the Grey Fantail by far the most curious. I think he was saying "what are you doing just sitting there.... in my patch!"

and the Grey Shrike-thrush was in the same tree but far more concerned about the next bit of food it could spot

There weren't nearly as many birds at the picnic area as has been the case recently. I wondered a few things, maybe the hot weather, maybe the approaching storm. although the lack of as many bugs as had been before was probably what I settled with in the end.
