GOLDEN WHISTLER
Pachycephala pectoralis 17 cm

·         In Australia the Golden Whistler is distributed widely in forests and woodlands of
       the east.

·         In north Queensland it occurs mainly in upland rainforests.

·    The sulphur-yellow and olive-green body plumage, with a white throat and black head markings, make the male conspicuous. The female is drably garbed in olive-greys and very pale yellows.

·    It has a melodic ‘wi-wi-wi-wi-whit’ call, which sometimes ends with a whip-crack. 

·     It is easily observed at Chambers Wildlife Rainforest Lodge .
