RFI Iron Range/FNQ – any recent info appreciated

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! Martin & John Perth WA
