Eastern Australia Birding

After birding in the south, center and north of Australia (Victoria, South Australia, and Northern Territory) I moved over to Queensland and New South Wales for several weeks birding.

I love the birding in Queensland and this time I spent about a week at the incredible O'Reilly's Rainforest Resort, visited the very dry southwest of the state, spent time traveling around the Atherton Tablelands, and had a couple of trips out onto the Great Barrier Reef. So many cool birds all over the place, and loads of unique animals too.... In New South Wales I birded around and to the south of Sydney - another great city for birding.

Here are some pics (scan down for some animals too...)
