Media notes
This beautiful ringing melodious song was a mystery for some time, but it is the local Black Butcherbird. the subspecies.....here is uncertain and given a likely pending split these very distinct vocals are significant as they are nothing like Australian birds. Interestingly, I also do not hear this song further east as at Ambua and VarirataAdult bird. Elevation: 435 m. Date added to IBC: June 22, 2016.
