Yes, the current flurry does seem to be nearly all brown-flanked birds.   The usual abundance of grey-flanked nesters ('commonest bird in Canberra gardens') may have deserted us for moister conditions towards the coast.  Perhaps the species is a good indicator of the location of the isohyet - or of the drying of Canberra gardens due to water supply policies, or both.
