Hi Bronwyn
Best tip for Cassowary is to keep your eyes open where-ever you are
up there.
Make sure you drive slowly to increase your chances of seeing them on
the side of the road and also decreasing the chances of hitting one!
Friends who live in Cairns saw an adult Cassowary with 3 chicks
crossing the road just north of the ferry a week ago.
We have seen a male and chicks at Jindalba Boardwalk (spelling??)
right near the carpark a couple of years ago. We were with Trish and
Andrew from Red Mill House and apparently they are regularly sighted
there. This doesn't mean anything like a guarantee of course!
There were also Buff-breasted Paradise Kingfishers nesting there but
they won't arrive until later in the year sorry.
If you don't see a Sunbird without trying I would be very very
surprised!
Cheers

Hi!
I'll be in the Cow Bay area of the Daintree for a week from this
Saturday and would appreciate knowing any good spots to concentrate
on, particularly for Cassowary, Bowerbirds, Boatbills, Kingfisher,
Sunbirds and Victoria Riflebirds amongst others.
Regards and look forward to hearing from anyone with advice,
Bronwyn Stow
