A flock of shore birds have been found dead on a beach at Bribie Island, believed to have been "mowed down" by a speeding 4WD, park rangers say.
The Department of Environment and Science is investigating the discovery of 11 dead and two injured crested terns south of the third lagoon on Ocean Beach on the island's eastern side.
Department compliance office Mike Devery said the birds were found on Wednesday, May 5.
"Rangers believe the birds were deliberately targeted by a person who was speeding in a four-wheel-drive, and basically lined them up and mowed them down," Mr Devery said.
