CommentMy wife and I stayed three nights at Paluma and I managed to photograph most of the main birds found there. The most frustrating thing was the lack of good light. One evening there was a short burst of light enabling me to capture some squabbling at the bird bath.
Moderator's note: the bird on the right is an immature male as indicated by the pale bill. Glenn Pure
