Hi All,
22 years ago the hotspot for Olive Whistlers was Ginini Flats. Wanting to see one I was sent there by whoever manned the COG phone one day in November 1995 – a very long drive along dirt roads south of Piccadilly Circus – and there was
an Olive Whistler in full song. Magic. According to eBird they haven’t been reported there since 2007. I can’t believe they’re no longer there and want to go back in January for a good look.
Firstly, does anybody know if they’re still there?
Secondly, does anybody want to come with me to hunt for them? I’m not keen to go on my own as it’s very remote and a fair bit of walking as well as driving is involved – it’s not nearly as easy to get from the car to the flats as I remembered
from 22 years ago!
I’d be interested in your thoughts on Olive Whistlers at Ginini Flats. I know there’s one at the Bot Gardens and that they’ve been reported recently at Bendora Dam and a couple of other places in Namadji.
Cheers,
Sue
