We have those four thornbills - brown, yellow, striated, buff-rumped on the university farm at Orange in the windbreaks but the buff-rumped have disappeared in the last year (along with the speckled warblers unfortunately). I find the brown thornbill alarm (grating) call can also be confused with the white-browed scrubwren who share the habitat (the more shrubby windbreaks). Can someone hint at the difference - my feeling is that the brown thornbill's is slightly more delicate, less gruff? Cilla |
