G’day Kate & Ray
Why not get in touch with Allan Briggs – he lives in Rocky-Yeppoon area & has been heavily involved in surveys of Yellow Chats on the mainland sites (not just Curtis Is). I’m sure that he could help you out & that he would know of some spots for Zitting Cisticolas as well.
The Eungella Honeyeaters were around Snake Rd-Dalrymple Rd junction in June last year when I was last there (there is a report on Birdline of this) – I imagine that site would be good to check in May. They were getting into mistletoe pretty low down in the trees on the side of Snake Rd not far from it’s junction with Dalrymple Rd.
I think Allan is a subcriber to this site, otherwise you can find his details in a Birds Aust publication like Wingspan as he is the BA contact for the Capricornia region…
Good luck!!
Cheers
