User's notes

This whistler was confusing. It had the best song I've ever heard from a rufous whistler. But when I tracked it down - this is what it looked like. It looks like an immature! It had a mate - she was ellusive but there. How can a bird sing that well and not be fully coloured? Never seen anything like that before.
