I am fairly familiar with Rose Robins and the mystery call doesn't sound
like one to me, but I have no idea what else it might be.
It would be interesting to know.
Cheers,
Merrilyn

Hi Peter - Yellow-throated Scrubwren usually weaves mimicked calls in with its
own calls, so you can usually pick them out of the bunch fairly easily and this
call doesn't have the jizz of Y-tScw.
Bringing up the local list is a great idea for looking for potential culprits
though.

Is Yellow-throated Scrubwren a possibility? I've never seen or heard one in
real life, I'm just listening to recordings of birds on the Eremaea list for
Royal National Park.
The frequency range seems similar, if not the call, and the field guides say
it's a mimic.

Hi Alan,
it was in tall wet sclerophyll forest at the southern end of Lady
Carrington Drive. The recorder was left remotely so I don't know the
position of the bird.
Thanks

Hi Marc,
To narrow down the possibilities, if you can remember, can you give us some
habitat context? i.e. was the bird calling from the canopy, mid-storey or low
down?
I'm assuming you were in wet sclerophyll forest if you had Rose Robin, although
you might be in the period when they start moving out into drier habitats for
the colder months?

Hi all,
I discovered this call on a recording I made in early March this year in the
Royal National Park, NSW.

Rose Robin's were in the area and heard soon after this call ( here is the Rose
Robin call for comparison - http://xeno-canto.org/146119 ), so it could
possibly be an atypical Rose Robin call. However, I've never heard anything
like this one before.
Would be interested to hear your thoughts!

Marc Anderson
