Willie Wagtails are possibly Australia's favourite bird. They are incredibly cheeky little members of the flycatcher family. They will relentlessly try to drive anything, man or beast, away from its nest and I'm pretty certain that this Willie Wagtail has chosen to build a nest close to the Ospreys, which have nested there for years. The WWT doesn't see it that way and views the Ospreys as invading its territory and I've been blown away by the antics of this tiny bird trying to shoo a large bird of prey from what it perceives as his own.

I'm going to start a thread devoted to the action I've seen over the last couple of days, but have to wade through a squizzillion shots before I tackle it.
