Steve Potter (Adelaide) and I had a Grey Falcon this morning shortly after first light only 9kms north of Alice Springs on the Stuart Highway.
We parked immediately north of the rail overpass and a single bird flew over us from the west giving clear views of all diagnostic features. It looped around to the north and we had another good view about 15 minutes later.
About an hour later, we had a third view at a greater distance of what was probably the same bird.
This is an area criss-crossed by many small watercourses still holding water with many small dams and lots of small to medium eucalypts.
