Merges with the irony rock very well (but that's just the thumbnail!). Love the chestnut plumage with tones of bronze and gold, and the bold stripes on its face.

I might be mis-remembering, but I'm sure I heard that call, and kept thinking it was a Whipbird about to start. But it didn't continue. Sadly I didn't see any of these.

Another cracking video Tom. I've got them both linked now to play via the Opus article. Remember to add the word video to the Tags. Would still love to know how you got them into the Gallery without having to host them elsewhere... I'm sort of thinking of trying to do some shorts.

Thanks for the help Delia, I managed to get the Opus 'search' to work for the Chestnut-breasted but not for the Spotted, I get this message Oops! We ran into some problems. Please enter a value using 200 characters or fewer.
had a look at the inserted-code but I couldn't find anything obvious.
I found it pretty-easy to upload 'smallish' clips (...though sometimes the .mp4 and .m4v format was rejected and then re-accepted after a second-attempt) Will try another today and see if I can make a 'tutorial'....if it helps.

Hi Delia, I 'created' another video-clip and posted to Birdforum, and took 'screenshots' of the various uploading-steps but unfortunately I can't seem to add them to this post without a URL, do you have an email address that I can send them to you with?....;)

Hi Delia, sorry to keep bothering you but am having a few issues with the video-search on my recently posted Brown Falcon video, unfortunately the Opus 'search' doesn't seem to find it. Can you have a look over it and tell me what I'm doing wrong, all the others that I've uploaded recently have all been successful ;)
