Today I observed a total of 33 Australian Bustards in 3 separate groups (2+17+14) along a 1.6 km stretch of Wurba Rd Near Springsure, Qld. I have only previously seen 11 during 4 previous Queensland road trips. It seems the good conditions over the last couple of years may be having a positive effect on their numbers.

On the subject of numbers I once saw 49 Bustards together about 20km south of Ayr, Qld. I think it was in 2003. It was quite a sight!
