 I was wondering if anyone had any books or references of any indigenous
names for the Grey Currawong. HANZAB has a whole bunch at the back of the
volume but absolutely no information on where they are from. Any pointers
much appreciated. 

I am also still lacking a photo of the black winged and kangaroo island if
anyone has one and wants to see it grace the wikipedia page (but it means a
commercial copyright release)

Finally, I have seen two intriguing mentions of white birds:

Title: White phase of the grey currawong?
Author(s): Whiteford, Ross
Source: Bird Observer (Nunawading) Volume: 757 Pages: 15 Published: October
1995

And 

Title: Albino grey currawong.
Author(s): Wall, L.
Source: Tasmanian Naturalist Pages: 11 Published: 1989

Neither of which I have easy access to. I'd be grateful if anyone had these
on their shelves at home for a quick note to say what was found.

Cheers
Cas Liber
