Having had the good fortune to travel to both Queensland and Alice Springs in Australia, I can tell you that in winter (our summer), it gets much colder at night in the areas that Woams inhabit as opposed to BH's, which is further north. Remember that north in OZ is warmer, south is colder. That black head is very useful for warming up, incubating or not. As has been noted in a lot of literature, the Southern Woma is usually much darker than it's northern relatives. That said, that's an interesting and nicely post, Kelly. Very informative. Even the people living in OZ are still learning about their own animals.
