During May we visited Tamborine just south of Brisbane with the goal of videoing Alber’ts Lyrebird.

I knew Spotted Quail-Thrush were in the Armidale area because a member of the local birdwatching group had taken a photo of it and asked me to identify it. That was about four years ago.

Thought I had better speed up the process of videoing 400 species so we went to Tasmania for two weeks.
Another new bird added to the list

During a survey for National Parks at Little Llangothlin Lagoon north of Guyra I was able to video an Australian Spotted Crake. My first Crake!
One new bird for December

Last week Gail and I travelled to Styx River, about 50 Km from Armidale, to have a picnic lunch with a colleague from the local birdwatching group.
