Mitchell Falls

Hi Penny and all. Having driven to Mitchell Falls a decade or so ago, with no trouble finding the Grasswten, the AOS cost of $1088 is cheap at the price, although getting to these remote sites under your own steam was much of the appeal in those younger days.

Best. Michael

> Mitchell Plateau charter for Black Grasswren 19 May 2021 ex Kununurra
> As per previous years, Australian Ornithological Services will run a one-day charter to the Mitchell Plateau at the end of our 2021 Top End tour. It involves fixed-wing to the Mitchell Plateau airstrip and then helicopters to the campground. The plane booked is a Cessna 208B Grand Caravan (13 seats) and the helicopters are six-seat Long Rangers. This day is not part of our commercial Top End tour in that we don?t charge our Top End participants, or the non-tour participants who elect to join them, a professional guiding fee for the day. The 2021 cost of the Mitchell Plateau charters and permit will be $1,088 per person, Black grasswren, Kimberley honeyeater and the yellow-eyed form of partridge pigeon are the key birds for the day. It is also a spectacular flight. We can take one more birder (making nine total). Moderate level of fitness required.
