Rufous Fantail |
Sightings
Rufous Fantails are very rare in the area where we live, near Narrabri, NSW. So far we have not seen one in this area yet.
First spotted by us in Dorrigo National Park, north-west NSW, on the eastern side of the Great Dividing Range. Later also observed in Washpool National Park, north-west NSW. Also seen and photographed by C. Kellenberg at Gibraltar Range National Park, NSW, in January 2009.
