We left Materanka and headed South to Daly Waters, originally to stay the night but after Barra Bites for lunch, Stephen had some more driving in him so we headed East towards Cape Crawford, King Ash Bay......we did not quite make it but found a free camp at Goanna Creek which until after dark we had all to our selves...birds galore...
a sunset that was classic and a night sky that was diamond encrusted and the picture above which is the sunrise!!!! Ah the serenity!!
It was a long trip so we were delighted when we came across this large flock of Beautitfuls (Red Tailed Black Cockatoos) on the Carpentaria Highway, just outside of Borroloola.We did get out to King Ash Bay the following day and checked out the fishing, which was why we had gone there.... no fish...to cold....so we decided that it was a waste of time and headed back to Cape Crawford. We had had breakfast there the day before and found it to be a delight... so stopped for a night before heading down to Barkly Homestead on the Barkly Highway.
For an area that is flat as...there is very little to see...then you come across pictures like this.
And then Brolgas on the side of the Tablelands Highway...magnificent birds...
