almost all I saw were on the right side on the road going to Mata Mata, in the +/- small trees
have to search something transparent... in the sun
sorry BluTuna
Both of the AWCs in trees were on the right when heading to MM - they were in a crook of the tree a bit above eye level. I didn't go further than Dalkieth waterhole on my drives so they are somewhere there.

Okay, I keep my eyes peeled all the way down to Twee.

I found the last one because I was searching for mice/shrews/rats in the undergrowth.
