Noisy Pitta in Blue Mountains NSW

[Carol Probets <>]

Hi all,

I've been told of a Noisy Pitta seen along Glenbrook Creek, near 
Springwood NSW. The woman who saw it is a regular bushwalker and gave 
me a good description of the bird, which she had identified using 
Pizzey & Knight. It was seen on Tuesday, a short distance downstream 
from the junction of Sassafras Creek and Glenbrook Creek. I searched 
for it for several hours yesterday with no luck, but there's a lot of 
rainforest habitat that it could have disappeared into.
This is the first record of Noisy Pitta in the Blue Mountains. 
However considering the occasional records in the Sydney region, not 
completely unexpected.
Sorry for the slight delay in reporting this but I've been flat out 
or not near a computer. If anyone wants to search for it please 
contact me for detailed directions.
Cheers,

Carol
