[edit] Pronunciation
If anyone could add the pronunciation of "Eyre" to this article, I think it would be helpful. Thanks. Ufwuct 01:59, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
I've always believed it to be pronouced as in the word 'air' --Drewnoakes 11:03, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Birds
I vaguelly recall an interesting fact (?) regarding the migration of birds to Lake Eyre during these occasional floods. Of particular note was the question of how these birds would know that the lake contained water, when they would usually be living quite a distance away. --Drewnoakes 11:09, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Salinity
Does the lake contain salt water when it is full? How salty is it? --Drewnoakes 11:09, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I'm not sure, but when it is empty it's a massive salt flat, so I would assume the water would be pretty salty. Xyzzyva 15:25, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
