"A hawk of the North, the Rough-legged Hawk breeds in Arctic tundra and taiga regions around the northern hemisphere. Both dark and light forms are common, with many birds intermediate between the extremes." -allaboutbirds.org
But isn't it nice of them to come all the way down here to see us during the 'non-breeding' season? :)

"One of North America’s largest grouse, the Dusky Grouse used to be considered the paler, interior subspecies of the Blue Grouse. Recent DNA evidence supports the spilt of the Blue Grouse into two separate species, the Dusky Grouse and the Sooty Grouse.
During breeding season, can be found in dry grasslands and shrublands as well as dry mountainous forests and subalpine habitats. In winter, found almost entirely in coniferous forests." -allaboutbirds.org

"A large, brightly colored flycatcher of southern Texas and Mexico, the Couch's Kingbird is very similar to the more widespread Tropical Kingbird. The two were considered the same species for nearly one hundred years, but they can be separated by voice and very subtle morphological characters." -allaboutbirds.org
View looking south eastt. Pic taken later in the afternoon on the return leg from visiting Te Anau.
One of these days I will invest in a decent photo editing programme other than the standard Microsoft Office as I know it would totally enhance these images.
McCracken went on to win Silver for Australia in the main event in the evening.

"A distinctive songbird of arid scrublands, the Pyrrhuloxia lives in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. A thick-billed, reddish bird with a crest, it superficially resembles its close relative, the Northern Cardinal." -allaboutbirds.org
