Migratory, although pattern unclear. Most birds in Tasmania move to mainland in winter, and N parts of range
only visited at that time; it is suspected that the same birds are involved, leap-frogging resident populations in SE
Australia and apparently using a geographical loop. (del Hoyo J, Elliott A, Sargatal J (eds), 1997)
