Birding around Willare Bridge

Birding around Willare Bridge

We have recently done another camping and birding trip just to the north east of Broome. It is perfect weather for camping at the moment with overnight minimums around 15c (60f) and daytime temperatures still a dry 32c (90f). We didnt venture too far, as the plan was to relax away from computers and just enjoy the natural environment. You dont actually have to go too far from Broome inland to find taller trees and different bird species. Cyclones prevent us having too many particularly tall trees along our coastline and if you can get yourself to a river or other water body you will soon discover a variety of different birdlife. We only went about 150 kilometres (93 miles) from home and found ourselves a lovely spot to observe birds.nice tall trees and the lower end of the Fitzroy River... [via 10000birds]
