Over the gorge

Over the gorge (Strepera graculina)

Another early start the following day. We headed up the road to Springbrook, which is part of Lamington National Park. A long and winding road with hairpin bends, steep drops and warnings of rock falls!

We stopped to explore the Purlingbrook Falls trail which is a steep gorge, very dramatic too.

On a branch overhanging the gorge beside the viewing platform I spotted this Pied Currawong. He's surely much braver than me LOL
