Sightings
Race "frontalis"
We have not seen a White-browed Scrubwren frontalis around our place at Narrabri, New South Wales, yet. However, they are abundant in the rainforests east of the dividing range, where we have seen them at Dorrigo National Park, in northeast New South Wales.
In January and August of 2006 we spotted White-browed Scrubwrens frontalis at Sawn Rocks (Mount Kaputar National Park), north-east of Narrabri, New South Wales. In October 2006 also spotted near Barraba, New South Wales.
Race "laevigaster"
Spotted for the first time in October 2007 in Washpool National Park, north-east New South Wales.
