| Lake Inverell - a great birding spot Photo: L.Beaton |
We saw 110 bird species, 9 mammals, also butterflies, reptiles, frogs and more including a beautiful Murray Cod which was released back into the Macintyre River.
The flora was different which was to be expected. The Caley's Ironbark Eucalyptus caleyi was in flower though the birds didn't seem to care. The native bees thought it was wonderful. If you stood underneath one of the trees all you could hear were the bees buzzing. The Xanthorrhoea johnsonii seemed stouter than the ones we get up here.

The weather was kind to us being warm and sunny during the day and not too cold at night.
There was lots of chat during "happy hour" when we happily reviewed our sightings, told jokes and listened to anecdotes of camps and outings past.
