All Pictures by Julie McClennan

birding has some unusual interruptions in Flores, Indonesia...

Julie McClennan, from my dad's hometown of Greensborough, Victoria, was the first [and hopefully not the last!] Julie claims that while some of these pictures are among her faves, others were chosen due to no-one else in the group capturing the species concerned.
