Black Grasswren - Amytornis housei

Nigel Jackett

2016-05-18

Little Merten Falls, Mitchell Plateau, Western Australia (Australia) (170 m)

call, song -

Fairly recently burnt habitat; sandstone outcrop on southern side of Little Merten Falls. Three individuals together, including one male (singing). Recording amplified, and noise from camera shutters removed, so the spacing between call phrases in the recording is slightly shorter than in reality (by less than a second generally).

bird-seen:yes

playback-used:no
