It’s not yet clear what part, if any, John’s Qld birds played in the WA discovery.
They’ve said they didn’t use playback, and that the birds sounded very different. But it’s tempting to see it as more than coincidence, following so closely after John’s discovery, and just a few weeks after the release of the call. For all I know, this is the end result of decades of attempts by this team, and it’s just coincidence.
Perhaps we could draw comparisons with the “Bannister effect” – the previously impossible four minute mile was suddenly being broken regularly once he’d shown it could be done.
