John. I used to see Spotted Quail-thrush regularly near my old home at Bunya
Downs. They were in the Brisbane Forest Park near Ferny Grove. Try the fire
trails coming off the Mailman's track into the park. As you turn right into
Mailman's track off Samford Rd I think it is the second fire trail going off
to the right. They hang around the rocky hilly parts. The Thomas & Thomas
site at Bellbird Grove is probably still valid too. There is a fire trail
going up from the picnic ground. Watch out for wild dogs up there, though! I
came across a pair that didn't run away like they normally do.
Cheers Steve Murray

Subject: RFI: Spotted quail thrush, eastern grass
owl,Brisbane.
Does any one know of any spotted quail thrush sites closer to Manly,
Brisbane than girraween. I have been out there for a look but missed them
and would like to try somewhere closer if possible. I have heard they used
to be found out near Greenbank somewhere. Hope i'm not pushing my luck but
would also be thankful for some directions to the grass owl sight out near
the airport. Was wondering if any birders have seen the owls out that way
recently. Both these birds have managed to elude me so far so any help would
be greatly appreciated....Regards John.
