WARBURTON GROOVE Today we did a flight from
Coober Pedy up to the northern part of Lake Eyre where the water is flowing in from
Warburton Groove with all the water from the floods up north earlier in the year. It is a rarity for the lake to have water as it is usually a salt pan. There is now a lot of
bird life in the area and we got to see several flocks of pelicans. How does word get out there about the amount of water and fish?

OPAL MINES AND TAILINGS they look quite eerie from the air.

WILLIAM CREEK HOTEL After flying over the Lake we landed at William Creek to have bit of a stretch, naturally we went to the hotel, which is quite famous as the only tin shed hotel in Australia and one of the top tourist spots in South Australia. We ordered a drink, looked at the clock and it was only 10.00am, went down well I must say as we got up at 5.30am. Please note that the pilot only had a coffee.

DESERT COLOURS The colours and shapes change as you travel and quite surprising the number of creek beds. A lot of rain is predicted at the weekend so some of the creeks may soon have water running.
