User's notes
A Weebill appeared on the branches of a small tree. It appeared to be by itself. Initially I thought it may have been a chick close to fledging as it jumped between branches rather than flying. It also did a lot of preening, revealing a dark spot under it chest feathers. It did not seem too bothered by my presence, even when I started moving closer for better photographs.

Hi Ryu, Thanks for that info. I think LisaH had a picture of Weebills in a nest so that would make sense. Thanks for pointing that out. Cheers
