Bush Bird

We had been camping at Etty Bay close to the beach. I was just spinning around in circles and having fun falling down when they suddenly appeared: Big, black, sharp claws, scaly legs, a crest like a crown — the kings of the rainforest!


Funny look

Tent hunting

  1. Hello Jonas,
    That's really cool to get that close! You are such lucky ducks! We have just put together a jigsaw puzzle of Australia and located where you are on the map. Your postcard arrived today from St, Lawrence in Queensland so Miss T put it on the Smartboard for us all to read. This term we are learning about local places. Have you been chased by any wild animals yet? Hope you are having a great time. Your friends in 1/2T xxoo

    1. Hi Luke and Malie,
      Thanks ;) They were mating right next to our tent. The female has the larger casque (crest), very unusual!
      Love, Jonas
