I have some vague information that might be helpful, but a local might
have to fill in some details. Some time within the last couple of
months a friend visited the Gold Coast and said he'd seen what sounded
like a Brush Turkey scratching around on a vacant block in the suburbs.
This is his description of the location:
"Magic mountain (near nobbies beach i think) under the orange units on
the hill. 5-750 meters to the beach along the walk from the shops."
I think Magic Mountain might be a fun park. I think the suburb might
actual be Nobby Beach. I think he means 500-750 metres, not 5-750.
Can anyone fill in the details, or suggest whether this might be a
location worth visiting too?

Good idea!
