A great article, Bob. It's informative and well written.

I must say that my own opinion has shifted on this issue as more information and explanations have been given. At first, I didn't realise the sites were on Freehold land - and an awareness of the significance of the area gradually emerged. You article certainly helps us understand the cultural, natural, and archeological significance of the area.

I'd strongly urge all birding-aus members to read the article, and the comments that follow. Thankfully the number of moronic responses is very low, while most of the comments at least show a little thought.

Dear all,

My piece on the recent brouhaha over the irruption of Princess parrots to
the west of Alice Springs has been posted at the ABC's Unleashed.

Please leave a comment if you have any thoughts, suggestions or corrections
- I think that this story has a fair way to run yet...
