Birds Queensland has two main outings each month, one on a weekend, and the other in mid-week. The Photogroup usually has an outing each month on the weekend, mostly in the morning, though the tide influences the timing if waders are the target. Details for these outings over the next few months are recorded below.
In addition, there are Easy Start walks for new members, on the last Sunday of each month (except December). Interested persons should contact Lynda Litz-Tyne lyndalitz@bigpond.com or Frank Burch camboislad@hotmail.com for details of locations and timing.
Campouts and Day Walks are intended to be enjoyable occasions for all BQ members. Belonging to BQ is a voluntary leisure activity where participants can observe birds to whatever degree of expertise they wish, relax and interact with like-minded fellow birdwatchers. Thank you to our members for contributing positively to this ethos.
The Queensland Waders Study Group offers wader-ID days through the year timed to suit the tide and location. The group also undertakes formal Wader counts on a regular basis, however these are not suited to casual visitors. Full details are given on the QWSG web page.
Outings organized by groups other than Birds Qld are listed below for those who would like to participate.
The details of some of the following outings listed may need to be confirmed, and additional outings may be added as the year progresses, so keep checking here at least each month. If the details of the meeting place, etc. given are insufficient, please call the nominated Leader for more precise directions. It is also important to notify the Leader to confirm your attendance. We encourage car-pooling wherever possible.
