    Had an amazing day out on the Continental Shelf doing a pelagic. Paul picked me up at 6am and we went off to Eaglehawk Neck.

  • Coles Bay

    May 8, 2023 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Didn't have any luck with Paul looking for the Spotted Crake.
    We then tried to go cross country to Frecinay but that didn't work out as the roads are about Munja Track condition.
    When we arrived the roof lifter was playing up on one side, so Mal fixed it.
    Got to see the Lewins Rail!!
    Ended up staying four nights. It is such a lovely place and having power, water & grey water hook up made it awesome!! Permanent hot water made boiling the kettle a breeze!! For $15 per night, it was certainly worth it.
