White-browed Babbler |
Sightings
We first spotted White-browed Babblers on the northern edge of Jack's Creek State Forest, 20 km south of Narrabri, New South Wales, where we saw them infrequently in the years 2003-2006.
Also spotted in February/March 2008, and again in August 2008, 30 km east of Narrabri.

These two views of its dark crown and the pronounced black mask are what convinced us that this is not a White-browed Babbler.
