Sunrise, a rain shower and I arrived at Yaki Point at roughly the same time. I narrowly missed getting wet, and had the opportunity to watch the storm and stray beams of morning light.

It is probably a courtship ritual of common drone fly

Pretty is their bright red feathers, Crimson Rosellas are the most timid of all the birds who visit my yard. They wait on the periphery until the other birds leave, and often there is no food left, but I always find some extra for these beauties.
A medium-sized dark-backed albatross with pale underwings outlined by a narrow dark border and a dark notch in the armpit. The adult has a whitish head with grayish cheeks that give it a “white-capped” appearance. The gray-green bill has a yellowish tip to both mandibles. Juveniles are grayer on the head with gray bills. The species breeds on islands off Tasmania and New Zealand but disperses widely across the southern Oceans between 15 and 60°S, where it is a frequently encountered pelagic seabird. Similar albatrosses have a dark-tipped (not pale-tipped) lower half to the bill, and Salvin’s Albatross has a pale gray head and Chatham Albatross a slaty-gray head, further differentiating them from White-capped Albatross. Juveniles of these three are very difficult to separate. (eBird)
