Yes Pickford Road and Tinaroo Creek Road have been completely changed as
John correctly states, but don't dismiss TCR as Oriental Pratincoles were
there a few weeks ago. Also the Golden Bowerbird is active on his bower and
was seen in the last two weeks.

We recommend visitors to this area get hold of Birds of Queenslands Wet
Tropics and Great Barrier Reef by Lloyd Nielsen as it covers the areas
between Townsville and Cooktown. It gives good identification sections on
the birds as well as sites to visit and maps. Armed with this, Jo 
Wieneke's book and the Thomas's book you should all clean up on all the
birds in this area!

Keep sending in those trip reports, we might even get to visit some of the
places mentioned!
