Thanks to all the birders who responded to my striated
g/wren query @ Uluru. Although others have recently
been successful at the car (and bus) sunset sites I tried both sites without
any luck – shall try again later this year.
Many birders also commented that Uluru
birding is disappointing – mainly due to the regulations on tourists in
this Park. On the last day I encountered a network of dirt roads on Resort
lands which, as far I could tell, are public access. The roads directing tourists
to the camel tours and bus camping areas provide good starting points to get to
this country. Also look out for maintained walking tracks to sunset viewing
areas on top of nearby sand dunes.
Cheers
