My primary editing interests are military and military history related articles, in particular anything to do with current and historic British aviation and naval history. Although I do go around making subtle (and some times not so subtle) edits where I feel necessary.
Beware of those learned in the ways of Sock puppetry. Chronic Sockpuppeteers, such as Chanakyathegreat affectionately known as "The BANNED one", or, "the one who is not so great" are undoubtedly the most stubborn kind to run into!

| For this edit, which help to make my headache go away because I've been looking long and hard trying to figure out how to reformat/reword since day 1 of the messy text dump by an ignorant but helpful (good faith, nonetheless) newbie. Good job~! Dave ♠♣♥♦™№1185©♪♫® 16:52, 27 August 2012 (UTC) |

The red-lored whistler (Pachycephala rufogularis) is one of nine species of whistler occurring in Australia and a member of the family Pachycephalidae. It resides in the low mallee, spinifex, cypress pine and broombush woodland in the desert of central New South Wales, north-western Victoria and adjacent south-eastern South Australia, preferring low mallee woodlands or shrublands with open canopy, above a moderately dense but patchy scrub layer. The male bird has an orange or buff face and throat, a grey breastband extending around the neck and over the head, and rufous underparts with pale yellow or olive edging to primaries. The female is similar but with a paler throat and underparts. While it is often seen perched in trees and shrubs, the red-lored whistler feeds, for the most part, on the ground. Little is known about the movement of this species, although it is thought to be sedentary, with some movement possibly after breeding. It builds a substantial, cup-shaped nest made mostly of coarse bark and mallee leaves, neatly woven around the rim in low shrubs and lays two or three eggs. The species's limited range has seen it listed nationally as a vulnerable species. This red-lored whistler was photographed in the Nombinnie Nature Reserve in New South Wales.Photograph credit: John Harrison
