A drive up to the Dampier Peninsula about 250km north of Broome, I found myself in the very remote village of Ardyaloon which is an Aboriginal community. I was driving around the town and onto One Arm Road, out to the wonderful beach side area, near their small dirt airport runway. Apart from the stunning […]

Still on the road trip to Broome, and while staying at Coconutz BnB in Coconut Wells just outside of Broome, I saw a plethora of bird life just outside my eco tent. One of these birds was the Little Friarbird, or should I say, many Little Friarbirds. They were a great opportunity to practice some […]

A hot afternoon in Kununura, lake side at Lake Kununura, looking once again for the Crocodiles that rest here, I noticed the Comb-Crested Jacana and many of them.

During my Road Trip to Broome, I made a pit stop at Mataranka and decided to pay a visit to the Mataranka Hot Springs. Hoping to catch a glimpse of a crocodile by the river, I walked carefully through the palm trees, only to be met with disappointment as none appeared. As I made my […]

So, along the long road to Broome, I found myself resting up in the caravan park in Kununurra for a couple of days. Located right on the Kununurra lake, it is a beautiful place to hang for a while and rejuvenate after a lot of driving. What could be better than relaxing, lake side and […]

On a very long road trip from Sydney to the other side of Australia, Broome in Western Australia, I stopped at Cunnamulla for the night. As often happens in the afternoons, the local birds start sitting high up in the trees ‘discussing’ the day they have just had. This was another opportunity to test out […]

The heliotrope flower, also known as Heliotropium Amplexicaule, is a fragrant plant with clusters of small, blue/purple flowers. Bees are often attracted to heliotrope flowers because of their sweet scent and the nectar they produce. Down by the river at Coorongooba Campground in the Wollomi National Park just outside of Lithgow in NSW, there is […]
