Hi all. Just a 'heads up' - for WA desert travellers.
Restricted level of access through Ngaanyatjarraku lands is now possible. I have just received a permit for travel on the Anne Beadell from
Neale Junction to
Laverton, but was refused a permit for the Old
Warburton Road.
Cheers.

Hi Greg.
Yes, heading north from Cocklebiddy. Looking for Naretha Bluebonnet, Scarlet-chested Parrot and Ground Cuckoo-shrike. Will be happy if I just get one of... :-).
Cheers.
John.

Good stuff - have fun.
PS Princess parrots have been recorded breeding near
Neale Junction - though maybe they are not on your hit list.
Cheers

They are on my hit list; it's just that I never expect to ever see one... Altho I might have seen one already at Jupiter
Well last year but it was at distance and it de-camped before I could get onto it. :-(

Add them to your list - as you know they move around a lot - keeps your eyes and ears open :)
Cheers

Sorry to tell you this but the reason for some of the birds you now search for are harder to find, is probably cause when I was at kid & we lived like nomads all over OZ & whilst living in
Rawlinna &
Cook every kid use to trap birds & sell to museums in
Perth &
Sydney & sometimes we could earn more $ than our dads in a week. The train would stop (I think twice a week) & we could load our catch. The museums would supply us cages & feed, later I found out most got taxidermy & sent all over. My uncle who got an apprenticeship in 1948 as a taxidermist at the
Sydney Museum was sent many & later he & his wife went on to be conservationist & started the reptile association of Aust & photographed & wrote many books & articles on reptiles & birds mainly in Australia & New Guinea
Hope you find & photograph more than you expect to good luck
