Comment | ABG describes this species as 'secretive... shy and furtive', behaviour traits shared with the two other bristlebird species of Australia. Usually heard when present but rarely seen well if at all. This image shows a bird of the nominate race brachypterus (short-winged). We followed it for some time along the edge of a track until there was a place where the vegetation had been pushed back forming a low pile. We anticipated that the bird would come into the open to cross the pile, but did not expect it to pause for a moment to call! I have removed a couple of out of focus twigs from the bottom of the picture. | ||||||||||||||||||
