This species has declined substantially and there are very few recent ACT records. Any sightings are noteworthy.
User's notes
Pair flushed from foraging area further to north along ridge up mount Majura by a Wedge-tailed Eagle which then made a fast stoop past them causing some commotion. They allighted a sentry position atop eucalyptus for 8 min before heading back to forage somewhere on west side of Majura summit.

Saw what I assume is the same pair on the afternoon of 27/02/2022 on Mt Majura. Plenty of casuarinas for them to feed on.
