[Judith Lukin-Amundsen <>]

First, birds that were seen throughout the trip included the following:

Starlings (great flocks, all south of the border), Indian Myna (in towns and pastures everywhere), Willie Wagtail, Masked Lapwing, Galah, Torresion Crow (northerly), Australian Raven (southerly), Maned Wood Duck, Crested Pigeon (towns), Magpie, Currawong (didn't see the Grey, sadly!), Magpie Lark (always appeared as 'advance warning' of inhabited areas coming up), Ibis (Straw-necked ?southerly, and Sacred/White ?northerly), Welcome Swallow, Kookaburra, White Cockatoo, Butcherbird (seemed to be mostly Greys that I saw), Lewin's Honeyeater, Grey Fantail, Nankeen Kestrels (south of the border).

        Probably I've failed to record some species here, as I was whizzing through.
