... and so to the last from QLD (Himantopus leucocephalus)

We then went to Buckley's Hole. How things can change over a few weeks, very little there, but on the lagoon was a Pied Stilt contemplating life - stilts have long been a favourite of the larger waders.

Now it was off to the airport to catch a plane to South Australia and a new adventure. Peter has a lot to live up to after being looked after so well in Queensland first by Ken and Judy and then by Hans and Judy.
