[Dewi]

Looks like a great place to visit Mel.

Nice bird pics and interesting rock art.

Can't wait to see more here.

[Mel]

Pleasure, Pumbaa

nan, I like maps as well as they help me figuring things and even planning if I want to do the same stuff.

It was quite an ordeal walking there, Dewi. Pretty hot and even if I consider the walk itself being easy, the combination with temps and climbing was a bit tiring.

From our campsite we made our way to Mamukala - a place where you can take a walk around the billabong or just sit in the hide overviewing a pretty vast water expanse and wait for the birds to arrive or just look at those that were already there. On route we found some

Brolgas

Green Pygmy Goose

Australian Grebe (on the half left) and Wandering Whistling Ducks
(47 & 48)

Green Pygmy Goose again (front) and a Hardhead at the back

It is a baby Amphibolurus temporalis - common name is a Swamplands lashtail
