You'd get the Western (King) browns up your way surely Don? They get up to 6 foot easily. I had an up-close and personal encounter with one that size near Hay in NSW in 2007. Fortunately, I had a spare pair of undies with me.

Nice sharp shots Don.
The brown is your garden variety, still quite young, as it hasn't lost the darker collar just yet. No longer a juvenile though - the ones I've seen of those have a black spot on the top of their heads, and can be a sort of greeny-brown colour.
Mate of mine got bitten on the ankle by one slashing a paddock - spent a couple of days flat on his back in a ward at the local hospital. The drongo was wearing thongs...
Thanks for the ID i-berg, if it was young I would hate to see one full grown.Nice sharp shots Don.
