Nice report Dave but, I must say I was a bit disappointed as it seems that
your recent travel and adventure and seeing the gloriousness of our beloved
country at its finest and intended ticking of unseen (by you) birds had
absolutely no mention of "a legitimate need to know about the distribution
of particular species" and seemed to unashamedly include "that your bird
list of itself has become some kind of contest or somehow important" and
worst of all "might be fun!!!". Therefore according to the scientific world
of seriousness I deem your report "a load of twaddle". 

 

And I am very upset you didn't invite me...

 

Steve Potter.

off to examine the legitimate need to know about the repeated formation of
waves and their characteristics with a highly advanced piece of foam and
fibreglass with ABSOLUTLY no intention of having fun....

Eventually I heard the unmistakable call of emu-wrens again and was a led
merry chase through the densest part of the spinifex catching fleeting
glimpses of the birds but no 'tickable views.' I know this has been a
subject of keen debate on the Birding Aus site lately so won't revisit all
that here and now.
