21/6/21 day 11- rellies on the Tanami

We left camp just after 9 this morning. We were only about 20 km from the border.

90 km on from the border Al and Zita had a flat tyre. Just after that we stopped for morning tea by a bit of a dam. Lots of birds here to enjoy.

Driving on, we agreed to have lunch at Sturt Creek. As we came close to the turn off, suddenly a familiar voice came over the radio-it was Ross!! And then we saw Janette ( Trevor’s sister) by the side of the road.

Turning in, we found their vehicle and a beautiful green and tree lined body of water, with vibrant bird life.

We decided to stop here with them for the night. Ross helped out by identifying some of the birds for us ( and from photos we have taken). He also showed us where a whistling kite has a nest.
