Paul,

Very atmospheric stereo recording with the creaking tea-tree.  Little
Wattlebirds always make think of the coast.  I do find Rufous
Whistlers are hard to record as they have such a powerful song that
can distort or overload quite easily, even when the recorder is not
overloading (if you know what I mean).  But you've done a great job!

cheers,

Vicki
