Hi Peter,

Pleased you saw the Sooty Owl. As a matter of interest, was the strangler fig the very big one - open at the base - you walk through on the track? We lived at Dandabah from 1988-1995, and there was always a Sooty Owl high in that tree - I used to call to it as we approached and generally it would call back. I don't suppose, 11 years later, it could still be the same owl?

Cheers

Bob

I was fortunate enough to get my first observation of a Sooty Owl in Bunya Mountains over the easter break. The bird is resident in a strangler fig which the scenic circle walk (from Dandabah) passes through not far from the track entrance. A difficult one to spot in the semi darkness and a real neck craner but nonetheless a real thrill to tick this elusive species!

cheers

peter
