Whistlers (there are several species in Australia) are sometimes referred to as 'thickheads', presumably because they have rather large and prominent heads. That feature is visible in some of these images of male golden whistlers, a common and beautiful species from eastern Australia (females are subtly gray-brown). I photographed them in forest on top of the escarpment along the coast near Wombarra, New South Wales, near Albany in Western Australia, and on the Atherton Tableland in tropical Queensland. |
