Australia is home to many unique and very colourful birds,
here is just a tiny percentage of them which I have collected and people have sent me. If you recognise any that shouldn't be here, please let me know and they will be removed immediately

metres in height and can weigh up to 60kgs (130lbs). The cassowary has
