This Great-billed Heron has to be my almost favorite bird to see on the Daintree River in North Queensland. Unfortunately, in my opinion it can't beat the Little Kingfisher at the other end of the size scale.

Black Kite (Milvus migrans), a medium-sized bird of prey. It is characterized by a forked tail, a brown body, and slightly paler head and neck. They are avid scavengers, famously known to opportunistic feeding when attracting to smoke and fires to catch prey escaping.
The Sacred Kingfishers have arrived for the winter. They obviously know that the winters here in North Queensland are like the best summer ever! Come and see with a birding tour at Port Douglas.
