@MichaelBedingfield .. Hi Michael, thanks for the ID .. this is a confusing one for me .. I believe this to be an immature Pied Butcherbird .. it was being fed by an adult but I unfortunately didn't get a good look at the adult bird .. I assumed Grey B but after looking at my bird guide and eBird I thought it resembled more a Pied B .. as I wasn't certain, I posted on the ABID facebook site .. and also iNaturalist .. where Pied was confirmed .. but happy to be corrected.

Agree with MarkH - this is a 'bug' (i.e. is in the Order Hemiptera), and I would think therein it is in the family Scutelleridae, subfamily Scutellerinae ('jewel bugs'). Best I can suggest as it could be in one of several similar-looking genera in that subfamily. Cheers, Allen M. Sundholm

Hi Trev, great record. I can see a white leg flag on the right leg in this image but can't read it at the image resolution. Any chance you have a higher quality version where it is readable? Thanks.

Fantastic breeding record, thanks David! Agree, the adults would have been born in the reserve so the chicks are 3+ generation Mulligans-born.
