Eastern Koel (juvenile)

Here's a juvenile Eastern Koel from our place in Bondi. He has spent the last three days begging from the same spot in the same tree. Its host appears to be a Red Wattlebird.

Lamington NP

Lamington National Park is off the bucket list. What a place! I caught up with a few lifers though didn't get shots of them all: Rufous Scrub-bird (2 seen, 4 heard), Albert's Lyrebird, Australian Logrunner, Paradise Riflebird, Russet-tailed Thrush and Wompoo Fruit-dove. Dipped: Marbled Frogmouth, Sooty Owl, Rose-crowned Fruit-Dove and Pale Yellow-Robin will have to wait. Australian Logrunner: I've wanted to see this species for a long time. It did not disappoint. They are very confiding and present in all suitable habitat. The approach to the Treetop walk was the easiest place to see them.
Lamington Crayfish Euastacus sulcatus: This endemic to the area was a real unexpected bonus.
