Hi Birding Ausers,

I'll be in Darwin for a short stay soon and since Banded Fruit-dove 
is one of those endemics in out-of-the-way places that I haven't seen 
despite numerous attempts, I thought I'd have another crack at it. 
This one is particularly vexing since I recently saw the subspecies 
on Lombok!  

Does anyone know of a good site where they have been seen recently? I 
don't mean 'in the general area of Nourlangie Rock or UDP Falls' 
type directions - I've been to both places many times. Does anyone 
know of any fruiting fig trees where they are feeding? My time's a 
bit limited, you see, and I'd like to try for Mangrove Golden Whistler 
on the way back into Darwin.

Many thanks for all leads.
David Andrew
