I have just returned from Cape York with Oz Tours
and guide John Young and several members of the Gold
Coast Birdwatchers and had some notable sightings which
included:- Golden-shouldered Parrots,Yellow-billed Kingfisher(nesting),
Large-tailed Nightjar, Rufous Owl, Chestnut-breasted Cuckoo, Eclectus
Parrot(nesting) , Grey Goshawk(nesting), Broad-billed Flycatcher,
Magnificent Riflebird (displaying),but the most notable for me was the Red
Goshawk nesting with young. We also saw many more
endemic species. Scott did the male Red Goshawk come back to nest site
after I left?
