The persistent bird

I don't know what kind of bird this is, but it really wants to get in our house.  Seems like every other day I hear it land on the window and it starts tearing at the screen with its beak.  I couldn't find it in our Eastern Australian wildlife book or the birdlife Australia website, but in looking (as usual) I get to see all sorts of funny pictures/names.  The drawing of the Spangled drongo makes it look like it doesn't have wings, and I think the frogmouths are really bizarre looking.  As far as silly names go,  Jacky winters and weebills (oh-so aptly named) might be at the top of the list... though Willy wagtails are still my favorite.  Anyway, here we are with another bird post.  Sorry.

This guy just wants to come in for a cuppa
In other news, this made my day :)
