Bluff Point Capricorn NP Yeppoon
Causeway Coolwaters Caravan Park, unpowered....the best site .. that’s us.....water front
The fig bird had a very chiming voice, it is really quite big and easy to spot high in the trees
We have reached the Tropic of Capricorn marker in Rockhampton, we are definitely getting much warmer evenings
Mt Archer is the backdrop for Rockhampton, the views were extensive over the city
Mt Etna NP bat cleft caves, a bit of a hike to the top of the mountain, then down a 100 stairs to the cleft cave in the side of the mountain
Each year 300,000 little bent-wing bats come to breed in the 30 metre deep crevice between these rocks, the bats are only about 2 inches in size
Gotta luv stairs
Byfield NP, Stoney Creek. The most unique clear turquoise water, even spotted 2 turtles
Our first Cuckoo as we walked a circuit track that took us further up stream
This weird pine tree in the state forest. ...think it has lost the plot
To start our special adventure west for a couple of weeks we stayed in Dingo and visited the Blackdown Tablelands NP..no caravan camping here as the road in was steep and windy.
Lots of strange rock formations spread around the NP
We did the 4.2km + 250 stairs hike down to the Rainbow Falls, such an oasis on the top of the mountain, well worth it even though no rainbow today. Explored the top of the falls too, lots of rock pools up there.
Beautiful silver eucalyptus trees along the road into the National Park
We are heading a little further west to avoid doing the coastal road section between Rockhampton and Sarina, the boring Malborough/Sarina strip.
