Springbrook sight seeing

["jade welch" <>]

Hi all,

A friend and i decided to go sight seeing  in Springbrook which is in the Gold Coast Hinterland in Queensland. While it was mainly a non-birding trip i did manage to spot birds from the car or on our few walks. I am planning on going back but this time for a day of birdwatching at Perlingbrook Falls. Tommorow i hope to go to Hinze Dam also here on the Gold Coast in search of more lifers. The following is a list of the species i saw today. 

female Albert's Lyrebird

Australian Brush-Turkey

a flock of 8 to 10 Topknot Pigeon's (lifer)

Rainbow Lorikeet

Crimson Rosella

King Parrot

Laughing Kookaburra

Large-billed Scrubwren

White-browed Scrubwren (these birds hung around with the Albert's Lyrebird in one location and with the Logrunners in the other locations i saw them)

Brown Thornbill

Lewin's Honeyeater

Noisy Miner

Eastern Yellow Robin

Logrunner (8 birds one getting as close as one metre to me)

Eastern Whipbird

Grey Fantail
