Jardine Station

This camp is right beside a picturesque billabong with lots of pretty lily flowers decorating the surface.

So far in the first couple of hours we have seen a cormorant, brolga, jakanas, kingfisher, ibis, burdekin ducks, pygmy geese, wagtails, pale headed rosellas, blue faced honey eaters, apostle birds, egrets and some small finches.

We can hear crows and Pardalotes close by in the dense leafy river gums. Those guys are wicked hard to spot, sitting high up in the leaves. Pam finally managed to spot these guys and got a photo of them hiding in the leafy branches.

It will be pleasant being here for the next couple of days.

We had a great stop here with a drive to the river nearby, then a few kilometres to an alternative camping area. In the same area we visited the beach. Photos will follow soon.

You can find Jardine station on Wikicamps but there is no mobile coverage there for any network.Read more
