Edwin, you may want to be a little careful at Yathong. NPWS seem to
give the impression that they don't want people here. Not sure if it
was the abrupt email from the local ranger, or the signs on every
cross road saying 'Service track only - no unauthorised entry" but it
seems public entry is not what NPWS want for this spot.

David Mitford and I are planning to have a look around Cobar in
central NSW next month for a few days. David hopes to see a few
new birds but I do not expect to see anything new myself though a
Grey Falcon would be a nice sight. Does anyone know of good
birding sights around Cobar or Central NSW and to see some
interesting species such as: Striated Grasswren - does anyone have
directions to see the Striated Grasswrens in Yathong NR and how to
get to Yathong NR?
Dear Edwin and Graham
When Birding NSW (then Field Ornithologists of NSW) were going to visitk
Yathong some years ago, we were in touch with the local ranger and he
was very insistant that we contacted him in advance of any proposed
visit. I think they are rightfully very protective of their small
Malleefowl population. So take care.
