We first saw this bird in the Botanical Gardens in Sydney. It looked very exotic and Val chased it around to take a picture.

However, as we progressed on our travels we found this Australian wader everywhere. it strolls along the rivers and foreshores and even between the pedestrians at the local shops.

Its a bit of a scavenger; like a larger less aggressive seagull…

We found these two in a tree , resting before their next foray.
