Hi Rosemary,
You may find the Birds Australia hosted
http://www.birdata.com.au/maps.vm?lat=-27.1&lon=133.6&scale=40000000&spe
cies=1 site useful. Type in the species name and zoom in as much as
possible and you can get a feel for the details of the distribution of
birds 1n Australia. I use this site whenever I am visiting somehwere new
and use it to help plan trips. It has a couple of records of both
species near Exmouth.
I have seen Mangrove Robins and heard Mangrove Golden Whistlers at
Karratha (~300 km to the east of North Cape) but not seen either on my
single trip to Exmouth (a good spot for Bustards and Spotted Harriers
though).

Hi Rosemary,
Personally, the furthest south that I've seen Mangrove Golden Whistler
is Broome and I've yet to get onto a Mangrove Robin. However, both range
to the Exmouth (North West Cape) area so I suspect you would be in with
a shot around there. I suspect that Carnarvon might be too far south to
get them regularly (happy to be corrected though).
Cheers,

previous trips - one in the Kimberley/Broome and one in Queensland - we
somehow never connected and I'm trying to decide whether there is any
chance of picking them up in WA.
