If you have a car, you can certainly get to Binna Burra / Green Mts in
a day from Brisbane [90 - 120 mins each way]. It might be that the
riflebirds get fed at Green Mts, but I'm not sure.
I believe the RTGT are more likely at Binna Burra than Green Mts. I've
also seen them at Mt Glorious, in Brisbane Forest Park, about 60 mins
out of town, and seen RB from the track between Jolly's Lookout and
Bombana at Mt Nebo [but they don't seem to be common there].

Hi everyone,
will likely have a free Sunday in Feb while doing some work in
Brisbane. What are the closest areas where I might have a reasonable
chance of finding Riflebird, Marbled Frogmouth and/or Russet-tailed
Ground thrush. Could I make it to Lamington and back in a day?
