Some farm land about 50km south of Townsville.

More Leaves. These pics are from Finch Hatton Gorge near Mackay. I have taken these from the underside of the leaves looking thru them towards the sunlight whch really brings out their details. Quite amazing.

Some leaves. I love these shots with the sun shining thru the leaves. Quite an awesome sight.

A leaf with a spider and the sun on the other side. This is from in the Finch Hatton Gorge NP near Mackay.
A beach shot near to Bowen about 200km south of Townsville. This is the town that a new movie is being shot at with Nicole Kidman. Didnt see her tho!

A big bird about 1.2m tall. It was dancing around flapping its wings to keep it light on its feet and chasing little tiny fish. It looked awesome, so graceful and yet so fast and accurate. I couldnt get my camera focused fast enough so I didnt get a real clear shot unfortunately.
Some forest and swamplands near Cocoa Creek south of Townsville.

A duotone of a bird. I dunno the name of this bird but it is white. Lives in the shallow swamplands and eats little fish and bugs and things out of the mud ... and somehow has managed to avoid being eaten so far by the crocodiles!
