User's notes
Anywhere between 10 to 15 Brown Gerygones were rapidly flying around the vegetation in our small patch of rain forest. It turned out that two males were in conflict in a violent fight (possibly to the death of the loser?), which finally ended on a small branch directly in front of me before the pair dropped to the ground oblivious to my close presence. They attracted a number of onlookers enabling me to get these photos. The pardalote also reported here took some interest in this activity.
