Introduction
Queensland is the second largest Australian State, after Western Australia. According to Geoscience Australia, the State covers over 1.7 mln square kilometres (22.5% of surface area of Australia). Population of Queensland is about 4.8 mln people, with half of the residents (2.3 mln) living in Brisbane as per 2016 census.
This book addresses birdwatching locations in the southern part of this vast State, from the border with NSW to the line running between the point just north of Rockhampton (St Lawrence) on the east coast and Winton in the west i.e. the line running approximately along the Tropic of Capricorn, the 23 parallel that cuts through the middle of Rockhampton. The tropical region of Queensland is described in our next book, Australian Good Birding Guide: Northern Queensland.
