I don't think anyone is accusing you of anything, they're just voicing
support for Tobias.

We all know the "chilling effect" that fear of getting an ID wrong can have.
Plenty of people get excited about wandering tattler to Tobias' report of

Personally I'm just glad he posted it and grateful to him for doing so.
Equally, there is nothing wrong with people testing the ID on a bird that
can be difficult to tell apart without hearing the call.

All is well in birding aus land - nobody needs to get upset!
