User's notes

I heard this bird well before I saw it. When I finally did see it I thought how well it was camouflaged with its dark grey plumage on the dead branch. It was calling regularly, often at times seemingly to fill the breaks from when the Red Wattlebird was calling. I saw these birds across the walk, although commonly taking advantage of being high up in dead trees.
