You are correct with Agile Wallaby id, there is a relict population there,
well south of the normal range.
I "think" some have also been recorded on the adjacent mainland - Redland
Shire.

Hi All,

Have two requests:
(1) not strictly birds but answerable by birders! Does anyone know which macropod/s is/are found on South Stradbroke Island, I was a kid when I was there but remember a macropus sp. with a white stripe on the thigh, I had thought Agile but it appears this is too far south of distribution in Strahan, maybe black striped wallaby. I did take a photo but god only knows in which draw it now resides. (2) I have searched the net and archive but have had no luck. I am looking for a bird list for Lord Howe Island, I will be visiting there in late Spring/early Summer so I need to get all prepared and excited!!

Any help gratefully recieved.

Cheers, Dean
