I can assure Rob Inglis that the Zitting Cisticola has not been recorded
round Atherton by any local observers.  This would be an extraordinary
record.
Nearest locations where I record this bird regularly are Giru south of
Townsville and Nifold Plain in Lakefield NP northwest of Cooktown.
Apart from the distinctive call, the best field characters to distinguish
from Golden-headed include the whiter tail tip and different face pattern.
The Zitting tends to inhabit more saline areas, but at Giru is also in
freshwater habitat.
