Bird Pics in the Queensland Outback

 

Bird life in the Cunnamulla area, Outback Queensland.

 

Cunnamulla is a town perched on the banks of the Warrego River in the Shire of Paroo, Outback Queensland. It is 206 kilometres south of Charleville, and approximately 750 kilometres west of Brisbane. In the 2016 census, Cunnamulla had a population of 1,140 people.

This town was once where bullock teams passed through and shearers spilled from bar windows; but today the small town is known for its natural outback beauty and outback hospitality.

Once again I came across bird species that I (a novice) had never before seen / photographed before, some included; Black Shouldered Kites, Red Backed Kingfishers, Plum Headed Finches, Rufous Songlarks and White Headed Stilts also known as Pied Stilts.
