A very unusually positioned Collared Sparrowhawk

A few bird photos from Crocodylus Park and Batchelor

We've now left Darwin and arrived in Batchelor. Big day today, Parap markets, pack up van, drive to Crocodylus Park, then the Palmerston waterslide, shopping and then drive to Batchelor, set up van, exhausted just writing it all down! Saw some wonderful bird action at Crocodylus Park (denoted by "CP" below), and then later this afternoon at Batchelor (denoted by "B" below). Hope you enjoy.
