White-browed Babblers are another of my favourite birds. Sociable, always busy, make strange friendly noises ... and hard to catch. So this morning I was fortunate and early enough to corner a gaggle of them (they travel and live in groups of around 12 or more) still in relaxed mode and took the opportunity to get some shots. For babblers, these are not-often seen moments. More

both White-browed Babbler and Grey-crowned Babbler in the same area. We continued on past Alston for nearly 3km and saw a flock of Masked Woodswallows.

m, whereas White-browed Babblers crossed gaps of at least 270 m wide. For each species, the rate of dispersal mortality per unit distance traveled was about the same. Because we have effectively partitioned the risk of dispersal mortality from the chance of outside dispersal, and because our mortality estimates are model dependent but landscape independent, they can be transported to other landscapes on which simulations have been run and, therefore, can be used in population viability assessment of unstudied or hypothetical animal populations.

We first spotted White-browed Babblers on the northern edge of Jack's Creek State Forest, 20 km south of Narrabri, New South Wales, where we saw them infrequently in the years 2003-2006. Also spotted regularly since February 2008 in Deriah Forest, 30 km east of Narrabri. Spotted by us in December 2008 at Porcupine Reserve in Gunnedah, NSW. More

This White-browed Babbler indeed have some striking features and one can easily see where it names derives from. It surely is a pretty bird and the combination of brown and white feathers are really beautiful. I like the "cap" on its head formed by the patch of brown feathers very much. Thanks for sharing this image with lovely natural colours, in both the bird and its surrounding. Best regards. More
