On my way back to freedom I had a stop over in Broome, WA, Australia for several hours. Here's one of the bird I was lucky to have bumped across in this small seaside town of 14,000 people near the Kimberly region of Western Australia. Crested Pigeon ( Ocyphaps lophotes) - July 3, 2008 40D + 300 mm f4 IS + 1.4x Kenko TC (420mm), f5.6, 1/1000, ISO 200, Handheld, Manual Exposure, Raw capture.   |

If Don King will reincarnate as a pigeon, he'll probably look like this, love the crest Neon!  |

Not a Currawong. None range. This is Corvus orru most likely.
