Forest Wagtail (12/12)

PASSERIFORMES: Motacillidae

Dendronanthus indicus  

When a first for the Australian mainland arrives what do you do? Well twitch it of course!

This species generally migrates from Indonesia to Papua New Guinea but this time it appears to have taken a reverse migration and ended up in Alice. So, a quick flight and taxi ride had me sitting in a suburban backyard and within 12 minutes was viewing this amazing species. AWESOME!
