No Eastern Whipbird?
 
No Eastern Whipbird?
I didn't see one but I was only there for around an hr with most of the time taken up by the ZOOM course so I probably did miss a few bird species. I heard some sort of passerine calling from a tree but couldn't find the bird.
 
Here's some of the photos I took while @ the Cairns ZOOM & Wildlife Dome
