All Kakadu was closed last week, especially the Arnhem Highway. Roads
are cut by flooding.

The NT birds list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ntbirds/ is probably
the best place for up to date info, e.g. where exactly to look for the
Rufous Owls in the Botanic Gardens. You'll also want to check on road
conditions at the KNP website - most roads in Kakadu are closed at
present so even with 4wd you couldn't get to Gunlom.
The Nourlangie Rock road rarely floods so 2WD will get to you a site
with escarpment specialties - except WT Grass-wren - and many other
birds. And Kakadu is wonderful in the wet.
