" These birds inhabit the northern region of Nepal, close to the 
perpetual snows. They are shy foresters, adhering to the Avilds, and

a. S- Australia. From Mr. George Fradgley. 
" This bird is distributed over the whole of Van Diemen's Land 
and the eastern portion of Australia, from Moreton Bay to Spencer's 
Gulf, to the westward of which I have never been able to trace it,
