Griffith's Island at Port Fairy
Luckily, we had a small window where the sun came out and made for a lovely walk.
Some impressions of the scenery:

You must have seen loads of birds seeing that you have numbered them

They are all very nice, I love the black shouldered kitie. Does it also have red eyes Down Under?

I don't know yet how many different birds I really saw, Lis, that's why I number them in here to keep track.
The Australian BSK would have red eyes as well, if the light had played along...
And there is a similar species as well, the letter winged kite.
Check
here. Unfortunately I never saw one.
