@nimma No you weren't imagining it. We were surprised also when we went to find it after it was listed. Amazing that it is still there, wow. Thanks for the update.

THanks Liam.m. Yeah I only thought about it later. I did hear a couple of ravens when I started, and a few more calls but I wasn't paying attention to them. And afterwards I wondered about those hackles. I was too focussed on the parrots!

Glad I found this sighting. I saw what I thought was a lyrebird near the road in a small stand of bushes, just down from the St Mark's grassland, so probably wasn't imagining it. 14 Jun 25 1330. Mel

Hi @KylieWaldon, I think you're right. I went through the backlog of unidentified bird sightings yesterday and may have got a little 'trigger happy' if you will. The angle on this bird in the first image is also a bit odd, but I tend to agree that the lack of those diagnostic throat hackles tips the scales in favour of Little. I'll change the ID now.

HI @Liam.m I'm wondering now if this was a LIttle Raven. There is no rough feathers around its neck and being extra wet it should have been very visible? Just wondering.
