G'day Ian
Others will no doubt help out with the major places but I would recommend
Dangar's Lagoon not far south of Armidale.  Depending on water levels this
swamp can be excellent for a large variety of waterbirds.
I'll be in the area in late April so would appreciate a posting of your
trip report on birding-aus.
Cheers
Steve
