Near Bulls Pk Creek. They seem to have been chasing very small grasshoppers.

Is there enough information here to definitively class this verreauxii alpina rather than verreauxii verreauxii? I note it's difficult without access to the Lat/Long data to determine an approximate altitude, however my understanding is that morphology can be quite cryptic and without a call recording distinguishing these subspecies is difficult.

Thanks John. The altitude would make it seem likely as V. alpina. Hopefully there is the benefit of a call recording next time. Cheers, Bede.
