Clinking Currawong
Strepera versicolor arguta
(Viewing 4 of 4 photos)

Click to listen to sound sample Clinking Currawongs are confined to Tasmania and are currently regarded as a subspecies of the widespread Grey Currawong. Years ago, they were regarded as a separate species and the reason I list them separately here is because of their very different calls. They are also different in colour - males are almost black and females dark grey a bit more like the Black-winged Currawong of the mainland mallee.
