Gary,
I'm coming into town tomorrow and will check the Telstra tower at 60km
(appr. 20km from Kunoth Well) from the Stuart Highway on the Tanami Road
- see if last year's Hobby's have returned to breed.
Did notice a pair of Aust Kestrels using the tower earlier in the season.
Lots (relatively) of Common Bronzewings out bush, Pallid Cuckoos calling
around town here at Yuendumu.
Cheers,
Bob Gosford

spent a most enjoyable hour and a half sitting at kunoth bore on Tanami road,
next to Hamiton downs youth camp turn off. the highlight was a single male
flock pigeon, which flew in over the dam and then landed for a drink. Stayed
about five minutes, went down to the water, had a drink and then was off on
pointed wings.
There would have been fifty plus common bronzewings and over 30 Bourke's
parrots, around 25 Diamond Doves, 15 zebra finch in the time that we were
there. Other birds of interest were pallid cuckoo, mulga parrots and Pt
Lincoln parrots.
Also, the full moon coming up behind the bloodwood and two dingos trotting
behind the dam were special.
