What a great diversity this morning at this popular tourist site. About thirty species in ten minutes, including three local endemics. A green ringtail possum added to the spectacle.

I have not seen an Atherton Scrubwren here for some months; well before the cyclone. In fact I have not seen one at mid altitude at any site since the blow. this is despite birds more common at higher altitudes being frequently seen now at mid altitudes, 550 -750 metres. And our birds heading further down the slope.

Regards,
Alan Gillanders
