Diverse
Our next stop was a parking area for the J S Fishers Lookout. And what impressive views to be had from there too. Wandering about and looking down into the bushes and trees I spotted this young Variegated Fairywren. He was rather kinder than the adults who just never seemed to stop moving. He...- delia todd

Exploring
We had a rather nice lunch in the cafe run by the boat company, then drove along the promenade where there were plenty of pull-in areas and car parks. In one we found this young Masked Lapwing. Didn't see an adult anywhere near him though.- delia todd

Butcher in training
After a few hours long driving, we arrived at Mount Nimmel, our campsite base for the next few days. It's half-way up the mountains behind Gold Coast. We had rather comfortable cabins and there was a communal cookhouse. One of the first species to greet us was a young Pied Butcherbird. I did...- delia todd

Unsure
The rain hadn't yet greened things up much, but this young Australian Magpie didn't seem to mind, think he was just relieved to have had some rain!- delia todd

Keeping close
The youngster wasn't far from mum, in fact he was between his parents. Bourke's Parrot have a widespread range across southern Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia but these were the only ones I saw, despite visiting those other two states as well. They feed on the ground.- delia todd

Youngsters
We were nearly back at the homestead when we encountered another family of Emus with about 7 juveniles. It might be easier to count the legs LOL- delia todd

Sorry, couldn't resist that caption for this wee Pied Stilt. He looks to be all legs still, doesn't he. These guys have two other alternative names in White-headed Stilt and Australian Stilt.- delia todd

Getting used to walking
After H&J had settled themselves into their room, Judy and I went and sat beside what I'll call the Homestead Dam (not too sure if that was the official name though). This young Black-fronted Dotterel came wandering towards us, I think he's still learning how to walk LOL.- delia todd

Bandit
After the long, long hours of driving the previous day, we only needed a half day to reach Cunnamulla in time for lunch.

A real treat
Then another Lifer.... coming thick and fast in this small outback town. A Restless Flycatcher (presumably a female) with two youngsters. I think she must have been calling to her mate to come with some food!!- delia todd
