Cuckoo-shrike Black-faced

 BLACK-FACED CUCKOO-SHRIKE Coracina novaehollandiae

 

 

 

There is a nicely wooded paddock at Willowmavin, a few kilometres to west of Kilmore. It is seldom grazed so at the moment it is heavily grassed with kangaroo grass, wallaby grass and other pasture grasses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This young bird was busy hunting and feeding, returning to the same branch to consume what had been caught. Caterpillars by the look of it.
