The ultimate ‘where to watch’ bird-finding guide to the birding hot-spots of South and Central Queensland, this guide is essential reading for any birders resident in the state or visiting who want to catch up with the region’s most sought-after and elusive species. It describes the most interesting birding sites in the southern half of the vast state of Queensland, with an emphasis on those which are easily accessible. Descriptions of each birding site include, as a minimum, habitat description, details of site facilities and precise directions of how to get to there and to any important locations within the site, and details of key bird species. Broken down region-by-region, in total it covers more than 600 sites, with many maps and images supplementing the detailed text. Often special birds – whether Barking Owl, Black-breasted Buttonquail, Paradise Riflebird or many many more – receive even more exact directions in order to help birdwatchers to track down species which might be rare, localised or otherwise difficult to find. The title was originally self-published by the authors in 2019, but this new and updated edition is packed with a great deal of additional and much more up-to-date information, making it a ‘must-have’ for anyone planning to go birding in Queensland.
