Other catches in the bait nets!

We are often getting fish, sometimes two at a time in the bait nets. They are pleased to be put back in the water!

Cherabin! "Barra" bait

Monday, July 09, 2007



And after the fillets have been taken, then the left over meat for the Cherabin pots, the final left-overs are taken and distributed in rubbish bins, with old screens from broken fans to keep the wildlife from pulling the bits out, and the blowflys that are attracted, help to spread pollen from the flowers on the Mango trees, as there is a shortage of bees here!

RECYCLING!



Some Top End beauty can only be seen from a boat!


Boss of the "Flight Department!"



Sea Eagles swoop along the river

The twice a week "mail plane" on glide across the Daly to land at the mission.



Last evening we saw the head of “something” swimming across the river, which caused a lot of splashing when it reached the bank, eventually, clumsily emerging as a somewhat bewildered wallaby. At a rough guess it may have slipped in while getting an evening drink, and finding the bank too steep, was committed to swimming the crocodile infested river, to become exhausted and disorientated, but incredibly lucky on the opposite river bank to the one it used to live on!


In a “Flashback” to Winton Queensland, this combination of four photos highlights the use of shutters and metal louvres to maintain a reasonable temperature for the protection of the footprints from the Dinosaurs Stampeding that occurred there, without recourse to expensive impractical electricity.
