(Morris, A.R., & G., 1981); (Officer, 1969); (Schodde & I.J., 1999); (Smith, 1984); (Storr, 1984c). Pectoral sandpipers ( Calidris melanotos ) typically inhabit shallow fresh water, often with grasses or other herbage. Associated with swamp margins, flooded agricultural land, tidal areas, saltmarshes. Regular but uncommon summer migrant. (Pizzey & Knight, The Field Guide to the Birds of Australia, 2012). Distribution appears to favour coast, with scattered inland records where suitable habitat is present. Black-eared Cuckoo ( Chalcites osculans ) are widespread across Australia. Inhabits drier woodlands, scrublands, mallee, mulga, saltmarsh, and riverside thickets (Pizzey & Knight, The Field Guide to the Birds of Australia, 2012). The Coxen’s Fig Parrot are found in rainforests, adjacent eucalypt woodlands and coastal scrubs, timber on watercourses and paperback woodlands. They range from highland and sparse remnant lowland rainforests on an edge of Great Divide from Rockhampton to Richmond (Pizzey & Knight, The Field Guide to the Birds of Australia, 2012) Red goshawks ( Erythrotriorchis radiatus ) are typically found in forests, open woodlands, agricultural land with large trees, partly forested coastal areas. Widespread but sparse distribution across coastal mainland Australia. (Pizzey & Knight, The Field Guide to the Birds of Australia, 2012).

The grey falcon ( Falco hypoleucos ) exists in a variety of habitats, from inland plains and deserts to well-timbered watercourses. It is considered rare and probably exists in low densities throughout most of its range (Pizzey & Knight, The Field Guide to the Birds of Australia, 2012).
