Remarks

» Notice the poorly developed yellow whiskers that make it an immature rather than an adult. I had just ringed this bird and it decided to stay a while before taking-off. I have uploaded a number of photos here from South Marmanet forest reserve where I was conducting a bird survey whose publications will be sent to ABC Bulletin for publication later for all to see other interesting species.
