The Wrong Side Of A ButcherBird

FF
The Grey Butcherbird Cracticus torquatus race argenteus from the side view, like in the Field Guide To Australian Birds (Simpson & Day) is not an exciting bird to look at.

Perhaps a view from the back is the best angle to view this highly symmetrical and intricately coloured bird. For one, I was very impressed with this young bird’s character and certainly his exquisite silver backside.
