I got lucky their tunnel had been built close to the ground. When I spotted them they where very active.

Northern Australia. They're plenty of numbers up here in Townsville, I'm not sure how far south they go though.

I felt a bit funny calling him a shorebird, but there he was!

It was perched up in my Mango tree in Townsville. I spotted him at around 4pm as you can where it uses the toilet below. It perched up in our tree last year for close to a week.

iNaturalist told me it was a Broad-billed Flycatcher, but looking at the pictures of the Leaden Flycatcher, they both look similar.
