Hi Chris

I believe the road from Camerons Corner across to Merty Merty is open -
check the South Aust Roads Dept website.  At the end of April, (even though
the road then was "officially" closed) we got 35kms West of Camerons Corner
on that road where we saw Eyrean Grasswren on top of a dune only about 50m
to the West of the road.  A brief playing of the call is very effective.

We also saw Flock Bronzewings (about 35) and Cinnamon Quail-thrush on the
road from Tibooburra to Camerons Corner.

Have a good trip!

Regards
Bob Cook

Hi all,  I an heading off in about 2 weeks to visit Bowra  and try for 
Grey grasswren at Cooper Crossing or perhaps at Noccundra before heading 
down to Sturt NP and down through Mutawintji before coming back home.  
Appreciate any tip from anyone who has been out that way recently.  I've 
checked road conditions and all roads through that corner of Qld are 
listed as open through to Innamincka, but the road from Innamincka to 
Cameron Corner is shown as closed.  I was considering going to try for 
Eyrean grasswren (2 dunes back from the yellow bus) on the road from 
Cameron Corner to Merty merty, but that road currently appears to be 
closed. Appreciate any tips or sightings people have had out that way.

regards,

Chris Ross
