I was up early, and it was a beautiful morning , with the sun just rising over the sugar cane. I walked Frankie around a little, for his morning ablutions, then back inside the van for coffee. Frankie started barking at the door and I could see a large stray dog wandering around - so we were stuck inside. After about an hour, the dog appeared to have gone, Ian went for a shower, and I walked over to the bins with Frankie - of course, at about the furthest point from the caravan, the stray appeared beside us. He appeared friendly enough, but how would you know. He had a tracker collar on, so obviously had done this before. He was also bigger than Frankie, and I was frightened. I was shouting very loudly at the stray to go away, with little effect, when thankfully the chef came out of his caravan, carrying a large Cudgel and after running wildly at the dog - scared the dog away.
Anyway all was good, and we packed up and left for a 20hr stop over ouside Bowen. On the way we stopped for a coffee, at a coffee growers shop. with a menagery of birds, goats and pigs.
Our overnight camp was a lovely with spotless toilets. Around teatime, there was a real racket in the trees around us.
It would appear that two separate groups of Black Cockatoos were having a disagreement. There must have been twenty of these birds...amazing.Two other caravans were there when we arrived . By 7pm there where about 12 or more.Baca selengkapnya
