Hi all
There seems to have been a few expeditions to Iron Range lately and we are
joining the club in a few weeks in early November.
We would greatly appreciate any up-to-date info on any of the harder-to-find
species around Iron Range, also the wet tropics endemics in the tablelands. We
will be focussing on Julatten/Mt Lewis in the Cairns area.
Specifically we would love any tips or recent gen on the following:
IRON RANGE
Fawn-breasted Bowerbird
Northern Scrub Robin
Red-bellied Pitta (long shot in Nov obviously)
Spotted Whistling-duck
(also any general tips or recent info on conditions etc)
MUSGRAVE AREA
Red Goshawk
Golden-shouldered Parrot
FNQ/TABLELANDS
King Quail (also Red-chested Button-quail etc)
Rufous Owl
Oriental Cuckoo
Sarus Crane
Black-throated Finch
Little Kingfisher
Blue-faced Parrot finch (are they on Mt Lewis yet?)
Golden Bowerbird
Barred Cuckooshrike
Southern Cassowary
Helmeted Guineafowl (where are these most ‘tickable’?)
Eastern grass Owl
Pale-vented Bush-hen – any recent stakeouts much appreciated
Thanks in advance!
