Greetings,
I also had a Grey Whistler in Yungaburra a few days ago. Not common here at
all.
It was in a feeding aggregation which included Pied & Spectacled Monarchs,
Dusky, Lewins and Macleay's Honeyeaters, Varied Triller, Drongo, Little
Shirke-thrush and Fariy Gerrygones.
Good numbers on Bustards and both Cranes on the central and southern
Atherton Tablelands at the moment.
The winter/dry season influx of raptors and kingfishers has continued.
Red-backed Kingfishers sen in the last few days near Granite Gorge, Kairi,
Yungaburra and Kaban. Blue-winged Kookaburras at Ravenshoe, Kaban, Hasties
Swamp and Wlakamin. Saw a very beautiful pale phase Brown Falcon near
Yungaburra two days ago. the female (white) Grey Goshawk from near Gumtree
on Gillies is dead. A car I believe. The male is still often seen on the
wires 1 km west of Yungaburra from 1630.
Regards,
Alan
