I have
some pics from my tip to the Billabongs:
 A really
swish boardwalk.
 There were so many birds in
this dam I could almost point the camera at random and get a
good shot.
 The pelicans were mopping
up the last fish in this rapidly drying water hole.
 I risked walking back to
the car from a viewing platform but kept my eyes peeled for
hungry crocs.
 Like this- we were safely
sheathed in aluminium and the crocs ignored us. Not so the
cattle that apparently get snaffled regularly.
 A handsome black necked stork
was happy to pose on the bank for pics
 This is not a cormorant but a
darter.
 The white breasted sea eagle
was guarding the nest but Ian thought the nest was empty.
 Maybe Mrs eagle has found
another mate but he is still in denial.
 The willie wagtail is having more
luck, but it is hard work having to find another fly every couple
of minutes.
