Hi All,
Sorry to post another ad so soon but I'm pretty excited about this one.
I have an accessible location for the new Sandhill Grasswren Amytornis oweni 
(formerly Striated Grasswren subspecies oweni) and am running some three-day 
accommodated trips departing Alice Springs for birders keen to twitch them. 
More information is on my website: 
http://www.birdingandwildlife.com/sandhill-grasswren/
For background on the species authority for this bird read the original 2013 
paper by Les Christidis et al. at: 
http://publications.rzsnsw.org.au/doi/10.7882/AZ.2013.004
I'm aware that as the IOC has so far refused to accept the split but this is 
probably a temporary situation- in my experience the four species formerly 
called Striated Grasswren are distinct in habitat, plumage and voice- not to 
mention distribution. But don't just take my word for it- come and see for 
yourself!

Regards

Mark Carter
