Rookie (feat. Loraine James)

The focal point in these elided consecutive excerpts from a continuous dawn recording is the dawn duet and solo singing of the Kangaroo Island subspecies (lashmari) of the Western Whipbird (Psophodes nigrogularis), also known as the White-bellied Whipbird (Psophodes leucogaster).** Background species include: Crescent Honeyeater, Galah, Grey Shrike-thrush, Kangaroo Island subspecies (KI) Crimson Rosella, KI Grey Currawong, KI Superb Fairy-wren, among others. The recording was made near the edge of a waterfall that was completely dry, overlooking a deep valley winding down to the ocean just over a kilometre away.

When listening to this recording (and viewing the accompanying track photograph taken at the location), it is important to embrace in mind that one is listening to an ecosystem soundscape recorded at dawn only five years after untypically catastrophic bushfires (the 'Black Summer' bushfires of 2019-2020) - an untypicality that is scientifically attributable to anthropically-caused climate change. This an ecosystem still in early stages of a struggling recovery (exacerbated by the continuation of the drought that initially catalysed the 'Black Summer' bushfires), and the focal birds that one is listening to were listed, in 2021, according to the IUCN Red List classification, as 'Endangered'. The following is a quotation from the Australian government environmental report that advised this classification:

"The main factor that made the subspecies eligible for listing in the Endangered category was the severe (>50%) reduction in population size in the previous 10 years. This major reduction in population was caused by the largest recorded wildfire on Kangaroo Island that burned for six weeks from late December 2019 to early February 2020. The subspecies’ extent of occurrence is estimated at 5,300 km2 (stable trend), and the area of occupancy is estimated to be 540 km2 (contracted). The population is estimated to have declined to 1,000 mature individuals in the wild due to the Kangaroo Island 2019/2020 bushfires, however this decline is probably not continuing. An analysis by a team from the National Environmental Science Program Threatened Species Recovery Hub shows that a large proportion of the range of Kangaroo Island Western Whipbird was affected by these fires: 51% was burnt in high to very high severity fire, and a further 11% was burnt in low to moderate severity fire. A structured expert elicitation process was used to estimate the proportional population change for this species from pre-fire levels to immediately after the fire and then out to three generations/10 years after the fire, when exposed to fires of varying severity. These results, combined with the spatial analyses of fire overlap, suggest that one year after the fire, the species has experienced an overall decline of 44% from pre-fire levels, but that the decline could be as large as 62% (bound of 80% confidence limits). After 10 years, the estimate for the overall population decline relative to the pre-fire population is predicted to be 33%, but potentially as much as 58% (bound of 80% confidence limit). For comparison, experts also estimated the population change over time in the absence of fire; by 10 years, the overall population of Kangaroo Island Western Whipbird after the fire was estimated to be 30% lower than it would have been, had the 2019/2020 fire not occurred."

Truth α

Sitting in my room I got nothing on
radio man won't even play my song
I hope that I can show you before too long why I done what I done.
Everyone I know is all hooked up
my solitude just hit me like a truck
I wanna pick myself up out of this rut for one brief moment.

So won't you come on out with me tonight
'cause I'm so tired of being so lonely
Yeah come on out with your boy tonight
If you don't got no money you can have one on me
oh have one on me

Remember playing with your dog in the yard
remember when life wasn't so fucking hard
remeber when we didn't have to feel so much all the time.
Playing with your demons is fun sometimes
yeah playing with your demons is fun sometimes
fun 'til it completely destroys your life and you're back here alone.

So won't you come on out with me tonight
'cause I'm so tired of being so lonely
Yeah come on out with your boy tonight
If you don't got no money you can have one on me
oh have one on me

I'm not afraid to tell you how I feel
I'm sick of nothing in my life being real
sometimes I think pain is the only thing that I feel that makes me feel alive.
Yes man, I'm physically attracted to you
but hey that ain't nothing new
been attracted to everyone I ever knew... What's up with that?

So won't you come on out with me tonight
'cause I'm so tired of being so lonely
Yeah come on out with your boy tonight
If you don't got no money you can have one on me
oh have one on me

Sometimes I stab you in the face for a cigarette
sometimes I give you all I have and nothing less
my human nature has got me under some great distress
I don't wanna talk no more
I just wanna drown my troubles
there's really nothing more about it that I can say
I just wanna take my pain away for one brief moment

So won't you come on out with me tonight
'cause I'm so tired of being so lonely
Yeah come on out with your boy tonight
If you don't got no money you can have one on me
oh have one on me
