Blimey Teddy Chip! I have to say it sounds pretty convincing to me (for whatever that's worth), though I don't recall a report of one since Steve Wilson's report of one in 1989. Very young Horsfield's Bronze may be unbarred below, but the rest doesn't fit. I look forward to hearing the opinions of others better qualified.

Irrespective, may I also say that most of us could benefit from noting Chip's excellent description; a model of how it should be done, which puts me at least to shame.

thanks mate

Ian

PS (in case you're getting too big-headed...); our Currawongs are Grey rather than Gray... :-)
