That is my point exactly. If we can’t find a species that we have 1000’s of photographs of, have the calls of, whose ecology is well-documented and doesn’t exactly live in remote areas, I can’t see people playing calls of Night Parrots being a threat to something that has only just been photographed, whose ecology is little known and lives in some of the remotest country in a massive, largely uninhabitated island. Providing location details is a different matter. I think that other comparisons (re: use of playback) made on previous comments are irrelevant in this instance. Mick

I have the call of the Regent Honeyeater, as do many other people, but that is hardly a comparison. For one thing the Night Parrot lives in very remote areas.
Most of my recordings are of their vocal mimicry of larger honeyeaters. I also have film of this.
