Hi everyond,
something that might be of interest to those who birdwatch down at
Werribee. A friend of mine has been photographing waders down on the
Point Wilson road at Werribee and was intrigued by the cement bunkers.
While trying to find out what they were he came across the following
information idicating that some of Mad Max was filmed down on that road.
See below
