A few years back when camped on the river at Innaminka we constantly
saw both Black Kites and Whistling ones. However we only heard one
call. after much discussion and observing we noted that when a Black
Kite was calling it sounded extremely close to that of the Whistling
Kite.
Last night while viewing the "Parrotw my wife said look at ll the
Whistling Kites.
We then discussed the calls from Innaminka, the fact that black Kites
frequent fires far more than Whistlers. The birds on the TV
definitely had forked tails they must be Black Kites. the calls were
Ok for Black kites as far as my les than accurate hearing is concerned.
