Funny you should come up with this Greg. A group of us from Adelaide are
heading for Neale Junction at the end of September/early November following
your sightings last year. One point though, I've checked with the WA
authorities and found that a transit permit is required to go through the
Cosmo Newberry region which both the Grand Central and Ann Beadell highways
go through. They are readily available at no charge from the WA Lands
Council.

With all the angst surrounding the permit problems for the Central
Australian princess parrots, it may be worth remembering that last Spring,
Alexander Watson, Bill Watson and I had multiple sightings of Princess
Parrot at Neale Junction in WA's Great Victoria Desert, along with
Scarlet-chested Parrot. It's an easy drive from Kalgoorlie, no permits are
required, and historically this has been a regular site for the species over
many decades. I wonder if anyone has been there to search for them since our
visit last October?
