RFI: Mt. Isa, western Qld and NW NSW

[Laurie Knight <>]

G'day Grant,

You might get the two Mt Isa grasswrens on the same day, so perhaps  
you can spend 2 nights at Lawn Hill chasing PCFWs etc.
Grey GWs are a chance in flooded lignum areas.  The one I say was at a  
wetland beside the Birdsville track about 70 km south of the border.   
Letterwings should be findable on the road between Boulia and Bedourie  
[why are you going via Longreach?].
Regards, Laurie.
