Black Falco

(Falco subniger)

Sightings

The identification of this bird is uncertain. However, in addition to the photo shown below, we had a chance to observe the bird's flight pattern and its underwings, indicating that it does not fit the description of any other species. First seen in September of 2006, 20 km south-west of Narrabri, New South Wales.

Spotted again, without a chance of obtaining a photo, but with relatively confident identification, in October 2007 on the southern fringes of Narrabri.
