 Hi Steve, 
            We saw
numerous Little Curlews around Darwin about three weeks ago, and also the
Brolgas just off the Highway in the fenced-in small part of Knuckeys Lagoon.
Counted seventeen Brolgas there, and  well over a hundred Little Curlews around
Darwin, plus one on the large tank 2km south of Pine Creek.  
           
Ironstone lagoon off Lagoon Rd., accessed thtough Ironstone Nursery, also had
many ducks and a few waders. 
            A
single Channel-billed Cuckoo flew across the Victoria Highway about 10km
west of Katherine at 7.00am on October 9th. 
                                    
Cheers 
                                            
Michael
