NINGALOO COAST

So after dropping Cale back at his work we headed back down to Exmouth with the intention of taking a look at the Ningaloo Coast.  

The countryside on way back from Cale's work


Wild flowers after the good rain in the area over winter


We arrive back at Judy and Steve's place


And head over to the Ningaloo Coast and set up camp at a place called Osprey.

This cockatiel thought he was going to get fed straight up.  Silly bird! 


Even though it was overcast the waters here are a beautiful tortoise blue. 


and this time of the year is great for the kite surfers



Beautiful


This fella was watching over us.  I believe it is the type of Osprey that is in this area.


Another bird in the area



We headed down to the gorge walk at Yardie Creek and we saw these people looking at the crossing at the mouth of the creek.

Hey mate you reckon I can make the crossing?


Yeah go for it!



Made it!


At the gorge there are boat tours you can take


The mouth from down the walk trail


Hey mate what you looking at!?


The gorge



CooooooooWeeeeee!



and back at the camp this fella was hanging around.  What's that smell?


Mmmmm, you smell sooooo good!


Hmmm, maybe not!


Hello there


The turquoise ocean 


and crabs with that




A long walk


Might buy me one of those kite things!


Spot the Kangaroo

Spot the Karen


As the day comes to an end



Just sit and contemplate the day



How about a beer with that just for contemplation purposes!


Tomorrow we head south towards home.
