Yep, another local bird! Airbrush. Some trivia - it was among the first birds to be scientifically described in Australia.

It's like you're working with the naturalist cataloging all the species in Australia back then. I can only imagine what a treasure trove of new living things there must have been at the time that was first taking place, what with Australia having taken their own evolutionary path. I can only imagine the stars in their eyes that this was going to make their reputation among the scientific community.

Good one, June!
