Hi all, I’ve put together a page featuring some interesting vocalizations of Spotted Bowerbird (Chlamydera maculata) which I recently recorded at Bowra Station in SW Queensland. http://wildambience.com/2015/10/the-amazing-calls-of-the-spotted-bowerbird/ Nothing unusual for the species, but it was the first time I had heard them at the bower and was amazed by the variety & nature of the calls, as well as the accuracy of some of the mimicry. On the page there are just two examples of mimicry, Whistling Kite & Australian Raven (or maybe it’s a Little Crow – very subjective when it comes to mimicry?!) Also, I have a few mystery calls from Bowra I’d love to get some comments on which I’ll post in a separate thread soon. — Marc Anderson Wild Ambience Sydney, Australia P +61 (0) 430 072 299 E marc@wildambience.com wildambience.com marcanderson.com.au twitter.com/wildambience
