It seems the WBWSs were two different birds.  I have had a good look at the photos shot in the second location, and it has much bigger and brighter  eyebrows than the first.

Not sure if it was passed on  -  Roger Curnow had nesting records for White-broweds out west Dunlop way

This morning there was at least one white-browed woodswallow at the Namadgi Visitors’ Centre.  I saw one, but that was on two occasions, about 50 metres apart, so it may not have been the same bird.

 

Also saw a pair of leaden flycatchers, numerous noisy friar birds with dependent young, a black-faced cuckoo-shrike trying to feed a juvenile with a large hard beetle which it spat out, and superb fairy wren feeding a juvenile.
