Re: Monarchs and Rufous fantails - Toolumbar NP NSW

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the info on RTBC.  I based my ID on the call mainly which I
listened to soon after on a disk I had with me.  Although it seemed to match
the RT better than the Glossy, I did not see them closely enough to make out
the distinctive features.  As you mentioned, they were most likely Glossy
Blacks.

Ian says hello!

Regards
Carla

Hi Carla,

I presume that you meant Glossy Black-Cockatoo and not Red-tailed 
Black-Cockatoo in your report.  There have been no reliable records of 
Red-tailed Black-Cockatoos in north-eastern New South Wales since the 1970s.

Can you say 'hi' to Ian for me.  I knew him when he worked in Grafton.
