 'Just back from Mitchell Plateau again and saw Black Grasswrens near Little 
Mertens Falls. Both sides. On the left hand side early in the morning and on 
the right hand side later in the day. I presume they bounded right across 
the top of the Falls through the legs of unsuspecting tourists of which 
there were large numbers passing by.
 However this is just to report that Surveyors Pool is now readily 
accessible. A road has just been pushed through and  instead of about an 8km 
return walk it is now about 500m only. I visited there yesterday but as I 
was with non-birders I didn't check for Black Grasswrens but it looks 
promising despite some areas that appear to have been burnt last year. 
Thomas and Thomas mention it although I don't know if they personally 
visited it. I will be interested to see who is the first birder to report 
Black Grasswrens from the area.'
Surveyors Pool has long been recognised as a hot spot for Black Grasswren.
