ANDAMOOKA Wow, prime real estate with this fabulous view. This is an opal mining town so as you can imagine no vegetation and houses that are shanty's. A lot of the backyards are just tailings. Only 30 km's away is the thriving town of Roxby Downs, it has a population of 3,500 with 3,000 people being employed at the BHP Billiton Mine at Olympic Dam. Roxby Downs has some trees, grass, new homes and a bustling shopping centre so a real contrast to Andamooka. LOCAL ENJOYING LUNCH AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD This wedge tailed eagle certainly is very impressive looking and when flying has a wing span of at least 1.5 metres.
