| The Sulphur Crested Cockatoo. A very noisy local inhabitant often to be seen and heard as they fly around the trees. | Blue-faced honeyeater (entomyzon cyanotis). A nectar feeder that can be found in many parts of eastern Australia. This one was keen on the callistemon tree right outside our cabin | ||

The locals call these things semi-snails and I haven't been able to find out anything more than that! |

This was a challenge. The platypus live in a river at the bottom of a steep sided valley and only come out at dusk and dawn. Not much light and they are a lot smaller than I expected. Only about 30cm long at a guess. | ||
