Brookfield is excellent for dry country birds - they have a very good loop track.  St Kilda to Thompson's Beach is excellent if you have a telescope or get the tides right - I'd suggest getting to them at high tide would concentrate the birds closer.  I would bother with the mangrove walk at St Kilda, but go out on the breakwater and walk around the outside of the playground.

Hi All,

I will be in Adelaide for a few days early in July and have two days free for birding. I'm thinking of day trips, no more than about 90 minutes' drive from the Tea Tree Gully area and possibly two or three locations for each day. (An overnight trip further afield is also a possibility.)

I have done some research and have possible locations but would appreciate first-hand knowledge from anyone who has been over that way recently and can recommend places that are easy to find and that may produce some species not found in our local area.

Some of my possible locations include Brookfield Conservation Park, several spots in the Monarto/Murray Bridge area and coastal and wetland spots around St Kilda ... up to Thompson's Beach.

Any advice/information would really be appreciated.

Cheers
Julie
