Central Australian Wildfires headed for Emu-wren sites

[Mark Carter <>]

Hi Birders,
A huge wildfire has torn through Owen Springs Reserve south of Alice Springs 
over the last 48 hours. As I write that fire front is now making its way along 
the Ooraminna Range and appears to be on a beeline for the Rufous-crowned 
Emu-wren sites along the Santa Teresa Road. There are other sites for Emu-wrens 
around Alice but to see so much habitat destroyed like this will be a terrible 
blow to the population. Fingers-crossed the wind changes direction in time...
