Greetings,

I have sighted Gouldians in the wild in the East Kimberley and right across the NT at the same longitude.

Are there sightings in recent years of Gouldians across this same band in the North of Queensland?

cheers, Case

Not sure about sightings in Nth Qld but if you're in the Cairns area consider the Mareeba Wetlands. I've not been but it does sound like the place for birders and maybe you'll spot some of their released Gouldians - http://www.mareebawetlands.org/gouldian.html. Also I think you mean same latitude (not longitude).

Thanks for your reply.

The wetlands are on the agenda but the release program for the G's appears to be dead in the water from what I could find. This was already discussed in another topic but I would be very happy if I could report sightings on my return.

And of course its latitude :thumbup: been out of the classroom too long.

Most of us allow some latitude in this area . .

Even the well co-ordinated :wave:
