There are some at , or rather just north of, Pt Augusta, on Mt Arden
Station. They are descendants of an Ostrich farm worked early in last
century. But, who does one contact to gain access to the property ?
They used to allow use of their shearers' quarters for overnight stays,
but I'm not sure whether this is still on.

Hello all,
It sounds as though there is widespread interest in the Port Augusta
ostrich info... enough to get posted on birding-aus direct maybe.
Are there any ostriches still in central Australia?
Cheers
