Never ever be afraid to do whats right if the well being of an animal is at stake.
Societys punishments are small compared to the wounds we afflict on our Soul when we look the other way.

Are we talking about the same Wrens? Yes there is plenty on Malurus leucopterus leuconotus much less on Malurus leucopterus leucopterus and almost nothing on Malurus leucopterus edouardi. I was able to find only two photos of Malurus leucopterus edouardi and none of a female or young birds.
Most articles are about the birds in general like this one http://www.publish.csiro.au/?paper=MU00021" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
or this http://www.publish.csiro.au/?paper=MU03011" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
and even this http://rspb.royalsocietypublishing.org/ ... 1663.short" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
They've been studying the species or so they say but where are the photos of the birds?

And here is something interesting http://www.publish.csiro.au/?paper=ZO02019" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; they talk about the Western and Eastern population again no photos. We know there are two varieties of blue White-winged Wrens, one with white back the others all blue like mine, is this what he means by Eastern and Western population, I don't think we will ever know this.
