Mon 6 Jan       Painted Finch Ormiston Gorge
A great morning at Ormiston Gorge this morning with all targets photographed. 
but the highlight was finding 8 Painted finches on the Pound walk roughly about 
2 kms starting from the track going anti-clockwise. They were on the the very 
arid slopes where vegetation was minimal.
