Tue 2 Dec Australian Brush-turkey (Cape York race 'purpureicollis') Mt
Lewis, FNQ
A single adult bird of Cape York race seen very well & closely with
photographic evidence seen not too far from the top clearing - it had a
pure purple/white collar with absolutely no hint of yellow on it. This
I believe represents the most southerly record of this race by a fair
distance.
