bristlebird & scrubbird

Having seen this from Greg, and then Bob Inglis’ subsequent message I have re-read Nick’s post and cannot see any mention of call-playback being used and nothing but the most generic of descriptions used for sites visited. Am I missing something?   Mick   ________________________________ From: Greg Roberts <ninderry@westnet.com.au> To: nick_leseberg@hotmail.com Cc: birding-aus <birding-aus@vicnet.net.au> Sent: Monday, 12 August 2013 12:36 PM Subject: [Birding-Aus] bristlebird & scrubbird Nick I saw your post and was a little alarmed by your offer to share site information in the Border Ranges. I have had numerous requests for details of sites for scrubbird and bristlebird in this area and I don’t hesitate to politely decline. Many years ago I found several scrubbird territories at Gloucester Tops and happily shared that information. These days those poor birds are harassed endlessly by playback. The bristlebird is especially sensitive with only a handful remaining in northern NSW. Frankly, none of us should be using playback to see the species in the critically endangered south-east Queensland-north-east NSW population, let alone sharing site information. People generally are understanding about these matters.
