Happy new year to all birders for 2010,
I can't help but notice that Eremea birdline does not include any info
from South Oz. Can that be remedied somehow? In any case SA has been
firing lately with some great birds not far from Adelaide including
regular sightings of Lewin's Rail and Goolwa where there is also a Ruff,
Latham's Snipe, and various crakes as well. Gluepot has had yet another
downpour on Friday night last from an obliging thunderstorm. I was part
of a party of five birdos who were there on Saturday and Gluepot is the
best I have seen it for years. Many birds have dramatically increased
their populations and we managed to see most of the rarest birds along
with various irruptive species (Pied HE, WW Trillers, Crimson Chats).
Plenty of rain up in the far north of the state will doubtless mean good
birding later this year along the Birdsville and Strez tracks.
Cheers
David Kowalick
