The archive isn't handling multi-word searches currently. It maybe a few
days before I can fix it. If wading through the results from a search
for "barren" is too painful, you could try a google search specifying

4 weeks ago I had a Bristlebird almost walk over my foot about 50 m down
the on the service trail which runs west and downhill from near the lodge.
Sometimes Bristlebirds can be easy to see on the first ~2 kms of the
track to Cook's Nose. Ground Parrots can be heard calling from this
service trail or the Cook's Nose track. Seeing one is another matter.
Volunteering for the annual survey is supposed to be a good way to
see one.
