hey Patrick,
good to see u on here!!
try Two Peoples Bay towards Albany from Cheyne's Beach if u miss any of the 3
skulkers &/or the Rock Parrot - I've had all 4 species there rather easily...
on the first morning that i'd ever visited there, all 3 skulkers were heard at
dawn from the carpark, whilst numerous Rock Parrots were among the first of any
bird to greet us while we were listening to the dawn chorus!! Red-winged
Fairy-Wrens, Red-eared Firetails, Carnaby's & Baudin's Black-Cockatoos,
Red-capped Parrots, Western Field-Wrens, amongst others were all seen there
within 1 km of the carpark - so it's a great spot & well worth visiting after
Cheyne's Beach, which is no doubt just as great too!!
cheers,
martin cachard,
cairns
