Hi all,
Just a quick note to those following the migration of the Channel-Billed
Cuckoo. They're still here in Alice Springs. I had one circiling my house
about 6.30 this morning. To my memory (which may be faulty), this is the
latest I've ever noticed them in town.
Will be doing some walking on the weekend around Ormiston, so I'll be on the
lookout for Grey Honey Eaters and the Spinifexbird. I noted that someone had
difficulty finding spinifex pigeons up here recently.
A dead cert. (sic) place is on the Ormiston Pound walk. Ascend the first
ridge from the road, top the ridge and walk up a long gully towards a saddle
(providing you're travelling clockwise around the walk, not thru the Gorge
first). A flock of very bold spinifex pigeons lives here, and they pose
willingly for photographs.
cheers,
Amanda
