Shack, Adam and Hoddinott only. Not far below Hamut Camp. Photo obtained. According to
Tim, this species was quite plentiful around Hamut Camp earlier in the year, but they seemed to

to walk back up again to a fruiting tree, to give this most wanted bird a last chance. And they
were succesful and very happy!
