Carl I think regardless it raises the issue of what extent people go to to see
birds.
I admit I'm guilty to some extent of what some may see as "breaking the rules".
Once seeing the Rufous Scrub bird in Barrington Tops, I walked through their
habitat to get literally on top of one. The bird was a metre away from me (wish
I had a Go Pro). Amazing experience but I felt a little guilty.
When I raised this with some birders they all said it was fine to do.
There is no way I would have seen one had I not walked 40 metres across their
habitat.
The other was using call back to see a Western Whipbird at Cheynes Beach.
Cheers,
Charles Hunter
