Sounds like an interesting trip and very well described......you certainly saw some good
Birds,in a lifetime of Birding I have only seen one Black Tailed Godwit
in this area,that at Lake Bathurst about twenty years ago,Tho I believe
they are regularly seen on passage at Brough Lake..Three weeks ago I
was standing in a recently ploughed Paddy Field in Sri Lanka and there
were at least 120 of the Black Tails and I was looking for the Bar
Tails...Strange.....as to why?I suppose they are at the limit of their
range in Southern Australia...Certainly in this barren area there are
more passerines than on Ainslie or Majura,vagaries of climate are not
adequate to explain this...Regards,
Terry Gourlay.
