Last week I gave a very brief account of a week in the Kerang area of NW
Victoria.  Most of the time I was engaged in surveying/studying
Grey-crowned Babblers near Koondrook (River Red Gum woodland, farmland),
but on my way home I dropped into Goschen Bushland Reserve (mallee) near
Lake Boga.  Two straight lists follow:
