Hi all
Yesterday I saw at least 20 Major Mitchells at Galga, in the Murray Mallee,
about half-way between Waikerie and Murray Bridge. Given that there is very
little good mallee left in this area, I was surprised by the size of the
flock, and their relative tameness. I had the work digital SLR with me which
only has a 55mm lens, and was able to take many pics, which turned out quite
reasonable after a bit of sharpening and cropping. One of them appears on
the front page of my website.
Cheers
