A Recommendation...

I'll start with Species of the day!
Species of the day is, well, Species of the day!

Species of the day is the Brown Cuckoo-Dove.



Onto my recommendation...

1770 Environmental Tours(LARC!)
Seventeen Seventy, Queensland,Australia.

When I talked to the crew, I found out they have seen 169 bird species on the trips.
Birds I have seen on the LARC-
Little black Cormorant- 1770 Marina
Australian Pelican- 1770 Marina
Little, Intermediate and Great Egrets- 1770 Marina
Whistling Kite- Between marina and Middle Is.
Osprey-Between marina and Middle Is.
Brahminy Kite-Between marina and Middle Is, and Bustard Head.
Eastern Reef Egret- Lunch stop
White-bellied Sea-eagle- Between marina and Middle Is, between Middle Island and lunch stop.
Beach Stone-Curlew- Outside Lunchstop
Whimbrel-Between marina and Middle Is.
Red-necked Stint-Between marina and Middle Is.
Pied Oystercatcher-Between marina and lunch stop.
Gull-billed tern- Between Middle Is and lunch stop.
Crested Tern- Sandboarding area.
White-throated Gerygone- lunch stop.
Dusky Honeyeater-Lunch stop.
Grey Fantail-Walk to cemetery.
Cicadabird-Walk to cemetery.
White-breasted Woodswallow-Outside Lunchstop.
Spangled Drongo- Bustard Head.
Mistletoebird-Lunch stop.

I loved it, and would recommend it to all birders.
I tried sand boarding, be sure you don't have too much for lunch, let me put it that way.

A notable selection of birds include Emu, a variety of plovers and honeyeaters, Osprey, and some beautiful birds. Look in the scrub surrounding the lunch area. The birds on the shore are friendly and not scared by the LARC.

10/10 for 1770 Environmental Tours!
