    Notes The pan was completely dry until a week ago whenheavy rains filled it. Due to the muddy banks it was not possible to survey the pan close-up. There ia a road south of the pan from which no birds were seen. At the far north of the pan a small section of the pan is vissible and the greater pelicans were observed from there.
