Best check with Parks Victoria in the region; they'll have the most up to date
info on that.

If you're going on to Gluepot, consider dropping in to the area around Lake
Walla Walla in Murray-Sunset National Park between Mildura and Renmark.
There's some excellent country in there and great birding, but again, check
with Parks Vic about access and recent rain.

Probably not worthwhile if you're going on further north; sort of a depauperate
subset of Wyperfeld, etc.

Have fun!
