Media notes
I saw 4 the first day and 5 the second, it's quite scarce; a nest was in an epiphyte clump along a logging track about 20 m.....up a tall tree, the pair were visiting the hole and calling and singing nearby. Best found by the sharp "zik" flight call.The rate of logging here is alarming and much damage is evident, supposedly even up to the World Heritage area of Lake Tengano which I did not visit; Forest species must be under some pressure, the Whistler was hard to find as were the Rennell White-eye and Rennell Starling. Elevation: 15 m. Date added to IBC: June 22, 2016.
