The dreamtime ends and the walkabout is over

The Safari is back in Blighty.

Not a bad place to work up in the morning to the caroling chorus of the Magpie family and the cackling laughter of the Laughing Kookaburras.
Fortunately this fella in camp looks far more scarier than he actually is!

Nice Huntsman

Then there's always the roos, this is member of the family Leonard.
Grub wasn't too bad either and couldn't possibly have been fresher; only a matter of a few minutes from water to table
Many thanks to our excellent hosts at Maroo.

Where to next? More pics and info tomorrow and maybe even a UK safari too.
In the meantime let us know where you walked about in your outback.

The spider looks as if s/he should have an elastic string to dangle from.

My outback has orb spiders - but not pink ones. (Nor kangaroos!)

Welcome back Dave, the weather you've come back to is pretty much what it's been like the whole time you were away - very wet & very windy!

That spider looks HUGE!

Pretty wet n windy out in the wilds Cliff, very little sunshine...and yes that spider was a real whopper, the log is about 3 feet in diameter!
