I heard that a male Blue Rock Thrush has been
present at the Devil's Kitchen (which I think is a prominent headland
in Noosa National Park), Noosa, since Sunday.
It is probably twitchable, but you'd better go now because
apparently flights from Melbourne are heavily booked this weekend.
So if your Australian thrush list consists only of Blackbird, Song
Thrush and the two natives, here's a big opportunity. And the males
really are blue!

News broke this morning of a BLUE ROCK THRUSH at Noosa heads in SE Queensland.
Details are sketchy at the moment apparently it has been present for several
days in a local garden. If anyone wants more information drop me a line and I
will email the details back once they become available.
For information on this species check out the latest Thailand guide (Lekagul &
Round).
