No flames / scarlets at Tidbinbilla, but...

Each to their own. Believe it or not, I get satisfaction from taking the photos, then having a reason to engage with the group...

Also, the reason I ask is, the female whistlers I have photographed in the past do not seem to have white tummies. In my extremely limited experience, most seem to have grey tummies:



Moreover, I have yet to find a field guide that is so photographically accurate as to categorically prevent argument, even amongst our esteemed expert birding colleagues.

Is the white a feature of juvenile female Golden Whistlers?

James,
Have you tried getting out a field guide and having a look for yourself. Believe it or not that is why many of us get satisfaction from birding.
