I think with this discussion what is being reported is remoteness rather
than elusiveness (though probably Black Grasswrens are at the top of both
lists).
I think the most elusive birds which are found relatively near to where
large numbers of birdwatchers live are: Lewin's Rail, Little Bittern,
Bush-hen and Rufous Scrub-bird.

Not disagreeing (although my list would be slightly different as I have
seen
4,7,8 and 10 but not Rufous Scrubbird or Spotted Whistling-duck) but
surely
1, 8 and 10 are not yet recognised as full species. Or have I missed
something?
