We searched for and found the BBBQ at Inskip Point in April this year,
focused on areas where the platelets were obvious, took us about 6 hours to
get a good enough view of the bird.

David,
I've sent you a small file image. If anyone else wishes to see it, would you
mind if they contact you for a forwarding of the image? I'm still on the
never-ending birding trip, with two birds to go before end of June to make
my targeted 'half-year' species list of 700. I will be home for a week in
mid July if anyone needs a big file image. BTW if anyone knows where I have
best shot at Regent Bowerbird in Brisbane, please let me know (tonight!).
Recent locations please. Isn't there a cafe somewhere near Mt Glorious with
tame birds?
PS: Number 698 was Inskip Black-breasted BQ today, and I thought it worth
mentioning somewhere that for some reason the area with 'platelets' appears
to have shrunken, and I took hours, not the usual minutes to find a bird.
Not sure if its the predomination of ferns and spreading Lantana, or if a
cat has moved in, or if, as usual, I'm grasping for excuses.

Hi John,
that is very interesting. Have you put the photo online ? And if so what is
the link to it. I'd be very interested in seeing it.
Thanks for replying,
David
