By Birding-Aus, on December 9th, 2018% Not sure if it was a guest appearance or whether they are hanging around SEQ for a while. Does anyone know if WTNT are sensitive to the heatwave conditions that have been gripping northern Australia and how they they would be influenced by the cyclonic system heading towards the Qld coast.

By Birding-Aus, on December 9th, 2018% It appears that it was going to collect passengers and only the pilot was lost.
see www.abc.net.au/news/2018-12-09/wreckage-of-missing-plane-found-in-tasmania/10597750
Given the weather was classed as poor at the time, it is strange that the pilot was taking the inland route [via the Arthur Range] rather than the coastal route.
It is a sad event that will . . . → Read More: Par Avion loses aircraft enroute to Melaleuca

Thanks for the info on Lathams (Japanese) Snipe, and your other posts.

By Birding-Aus, on December 4th, 2018% Saw a number of Latham’s Snipe at Fox Lake Robe SA. Some surprised me in that they were right out in the open feeding on a sandbar. Even wading out till the water was up to their body. My experience is that they are usually much more reclusive.

That is what has happened in and around Eungella National Park in the hinterland of the central Queensland coast in recent days. This not only imperils the Eungella Honeyeater in that part of the world; it . . . → Read More: Queensland wildfires
