Lake Eyre isn’t all pinks and blues and silver salt.
At the top of the main lake and the Goyder Lagoon where some water is flowing in from the Warburton River, it’s quite muddy but there is an abundance of birds.
The pelicans stand out because of their numbers and the apparent ease with which they can glide just above the water’s surface.
However there’s cormorants and black swans. sea gulls, banded stilts and ducks to be seen as well.
There appears to be even more in the Coongie Lake system where the water is fresh and abundant fish to feed on.
Perfect timing. On my way up the Birdsville Track at the end of this week. Love your work.
