The Old Melbourne Road is flanked by saltpans and winds through scrub. The dry saltpans yielded few bird sightings, but we found Striated Thornbill in the melaleuca by the Nature Walk and further along, the industrious Malleefowl. See the Malleefowl's daily grind.
A Peaceful Dove quietly strutted among the grass, while a lizard sunned itself and returned our curious looks.
Tea Tree Crossing looked wide and dry.
