Hi Jim
I saw a large flock of Cranes not far from Bromfield a couple of weeks
ago. We were driving between Atherton and Malanda, along the Upper
Barron Road, at around sunset, and about 100 cranes flew over towards
their roost. From the 20 or 30 photos I took I've only found Sarus
Crane, but Brolga have been reported with these flocks, so check for
the diagnostic wing markings.
Cheers

Hi birders,
I will be spending a couple of days in Cairns next month, and would
like to catch up with this species. My previous visits to the area
have always been out of season.
I know they breed and roost at Bromfield crater, but do they visit
Mareeba, or is there anywhere closer to Cairns where I could find
them?
Thanks in advance
Jim O'Shea
