Fraser Island

Visited the island in September 2010 staying at the Kingfisher Bay Resort located on the Western side of the island. We took our vehicle across on the vehicle ferry, which leaves from River End on the mainland. There were plenty of birding opportunities within close proximity of the resort along with lots of great scenery around the island.

The following birds were photographed around Kingfisher Bay Resort in September

Bar-shouldered Dove (Geopelia humeralis)
Black-faced Cuckoo-Shrike (Coracina novaehollandiae)
Blue-Faced Honeyeater ((Entomzon cyanotis)
