We had one in our street this year roosting within meters of Pennant Hills Road near the corner of the M2. It had a very good view of the traffic and was well lit up by the street lights. It was a female or immature male. Curiously, it disappeared about a month ago. My theory is that it moved closer to a mound or mounds in order to breed (female) or was looking for somewhere more suitable to build one (male). It could, of course, have perished. It wouldn't survive a stroll across Pennant Hills Road.

Happy Brush Turkey spotting.
