Jan 8: Going out of town

Written By Richard Fuller

Eastern Grey Kangaroos in the grounds of our Gold Coast hotel were a highlight today.

We went down to the Gold Coast for an overnight stay, so I did essentially no birding within Brisbane today. Best birds were the long-staying pair of Little Friarbirds in the garden. I didn’t even do a 5-min point count in the garden, which was a poor show.

My year list at the end of the day was 170 species. I spent 0 minutes birding in Brisbane, walked 0 km and drove 0 km.
