Australian magpie

It would appear our campsite's mystery tuxedo bird is an Australian magpie. We thought it might be a tui bird, which is a bird native to New Zealand and nowhere else, but it does not appear to be so. According to wikipedia, the Australian magpie is an introduced species that is now considered to be a pest.

  2. ....where on earth are you connecting to wifi at your campsites? I get hotels/motels, but do campsites now wifi?

    And out of curiosity are you posting entirely from smartphones or did you bring a tablet/laptop for your travels? If from a phone, serious props for the effort in providing all the fabulous text.

  3. Campsites are quite luxurious. Almost all have wifi in some form (often paid). Kitchens are standard, often with dishes. Often a TV room / games room.

    Karen did all the recent ones via iphone :)
