Now that's interesting! I was listening to Radio National yesterday, to a chap
being interviewed on a farm near Strahan on Macquarie Harbour, west coast of
Tassie. The ambient noise behind the interview included things like a seaplane
(which they commented on), plus, Yellow-throated Honeyeater, Green Rosella and
WILLIE WAGTAIL! I realise that background noise can be added to these things,
but in this case I think not. Anyone near Strahan to follow up?!
Cheers, Lawrie
