User's notes

2 groups, managed to get photos of 2 males at a distance that were at the end of the lane and about 500 meters from the end of the lane there was another group in vegetation I could not see how many there were but I am guessing at least 2 as I heard them calling at the same time

For some reason I am having issues selecting Callocepphalon lathami, it keeps on picking gang gangs, it might be more of a problem on my end

Once you have suggested a species on the sighting, I don't think its possible to change the suggestion unless through the category suggest box on the sighting page (not editing the sighting). Its ok now as I've confirmed Glossy Black-Cockatoo. Sometimes people make mistakes!
