Longitude 143.2941700 (143° 17′ 39″ E)

This site is around the back of the airport on the causeway across the river on the Lockhart River Mission Rd. There is nice looking forest here. A walk along the track and the river are the only points of access. As with all the sites here, knowing your calls is very helpful in identifying the birds.
