Published sightings for the week ending 24 Jan 2010.
Fri 22 Jan Zitting Cisticola Orient Road, unsealed section, south
of Ingham, close to coast
First found pair of birds very active yesterday. Today, located three
pairs at different sections of the road, which runs through ankle to
knee high grasses. Vocal note: most guides suggest 'lik lik'. Insecty
'sick sick', 'sick sick sick' and even five-note variants closer (to my
ear).
