I have been lucky enough to come to the Top End of the Northern Territory a number of times, mostly during the dry season and it really is a bird-watcher's paradise. Below is a small sample of some of the amazing birdlife I have seen on this trip.
Whistling Kite (lots of these and Black Kites)
Beach Stone-curlew
Black Butcherbird
Grey-tailed Tattlers
Lemon-bellied Flycatcher
Red-tailed Black Cockatoo
(I always thinkof these away from the coast, this one was with a number of friends at Nightcliff Beach)
Eastern Osprey
Brahminy Kite
Red-headed Honeyeater
Red-winged Parrot
Rainbow Bee-eater
Forest Kingfisher
Broad-billed Flycatcher
Brolga
Pied Heron
Wandering Whistling Duck and ducklings
White-necked or Pacific Heron
