It's been a Lyrebird to Lyrebird trip. Almost 8 weeks ago in Oz, I saw Albert's Lyrebird. And, after 5 other countries, back in Oz, SUPERB LYREBIRD is on my list, on my penultimate full day of birding!

Rangiroa - the Blue Lagoon excursion. The atoll is so big, once you're in the middle, you can barely see land!
Two endemics to get: I got one of them (Blue Lorikeet) But bonus Bristle-thighed Curlews there!
Baby shark - come on, sing along!
White Tern obligatory atoll photo.

Back on Tahiti for a day or two. Went up the big valley, in the vain hope of Tahiti Reed Warbler!
