Toeing, flowing and no-going on the water

Walking, winging on water: Comb-crested Jacana (Irediparra gallinacea) makes tracks in Tyto yesterday.


Walking, winging in water: Royal Spoonbill (Platalea regia) shakes feathers loose while feeding in drying creek pool today.


No walking here! Saltwater Crocodile bakes motionless (most days) at Macknade revegetation area east of Ingham.
