An amazing creaky call and fill the air with a lovely sweet scent when they crunch the gumnuts. Planning to add scientific names when I get on the computer as I can't seem to copy and paste here on the iPad :)

Hi Michelle, welcome to Project Noah! Great spotting, I hope to see one of these one day!! If you go into 'Edit this spotting' you can add the scientific name Callocephalon fimbriatum. (The Birds in Backyards website is a great resource for finding IDs and scientific names for birds. http://www.birdsinbackyards.net/)
