Ground-thrushes on Mt Glorious, Brisbane

[Peter Woodall <>]

Hi Neville

A couple of years back I wrote a note for the Qld Nats on the two thrushes
and went through all the Qld Museum specimens at the time.

There are only specimens of the Russet-tailed Thrush from Mt Glorious and
surrounds, but at Bunya Mtns and Lamington, at higher altitudes, both species
occur and can overlap.
