Day 38 30/5/21
Up at 6.15am, temperature 4ºC. Packed up, had breakfast and got away by 8.15am. Drove to Mungindi on the NSW-Qld border, which is 124km from Moree and parked up beside the Barwon River. Stopped here for morning coffee and a bird walk, which was productive with a family of Purple-backed Fairy-wren foraging along the river. From here we went to Thallon, where the main attraction is William the Hairy-Nosed Wombat Statue in the park. Then continued on to the Nindigully Pub, where we parked beside the Moonie River for lunch. Birding here was not too bad with two Grey Teal with eight ducklings to greet us, also here was a party of Plum-headed Finch and a pair of Red-rumped Parrot surveying the scene.

This activity was conducted with a back drop of Country and Western music coming from the pub – not our scene.

The last leg was to St. George with more vast areas cleared for cotton and grain, again some being used other areas left unused. Can’t really complain as we all use cotton fabrics and clothes and eat grains. Booked into the River Gum Tourist Park for an overnighter, quick set up with no power. Set up and went for a walk along to the Weir and along the Balonne River downstream, not much happening, one White-faced and White-necked Heron plus one Great Egret.

Back to camp for a quiet night and a relaxing evening..
Day 39 31/5/21
Up early as a big drive ahead. Headed off just before 8.00am to fuel up ($1.30 lt.) and get an exchange 3.7kg gas bottle ($27.50), which fortunately they had. Took the Carnarvon Highway stopping at Bollon, where we decided to check out the free camp along the Bollon River. Plenty of campers here, must get very busy in the high season. Found a spot along the river, had a coffee and went for a walk further up stream. Had a Whistling Kite carrying a fish to its nest. Finished the walk and as it was nearing lunch we decided to stay here overlooking the river. Had a Collared Sparrowhawk interrupt lunch, but we did not mind as it posed in the trees for us. Will definitely come and camp here another time. Beautiful spot.

| Collared Sparrowhawk |
After lunch Lindsay drove for the next hour with the scenery not to exciting. This part of the road although sealed was narrow with a few wider stretches. The narrow parts of the road did not deter several caravans overtaking doing at least 110kph! Crazy drivers, one even had a sign on the back saying “Living The Dream”, maybe not for long driving like that! Had seven Emu beside the road just before we joined the Mitchell Hwy into Cunnamulla. Checked out the town and found the nice Gidgee Bean Café, where we had visited before, was closed and up for sale. The good news is that it has now been sold and hopefully will open again soon. Booked into the Warrego Riverside Tourist Park and met up with Judy the owner again. Were allocated a drive through site, which was nice and easy. Not quite so cold tonight, must be back in Queensland!
Day 40 1/6/21
Had a bit of a lie in until nearly 7.00am. Finished our morning coffee as the temperature soared up to 8ºC and went for a walk around the park, had four Black-tailed Native-hen by the river, took a few photos of Australian Magpie and Australian Raven in trees across the river.
 |
| Australian Magpie - adult and immature |
Lindsay organised some laundry before making a lovely cooked breakfast. I went down to Cunnamulla Sewerage Treatment Plant, where there were some good birds including a Ballion’s Crake plus Pink-eared Duck and Grey Teal with ducklings.
 |
| Ballion's Crake |
Back to camp before going into Cunnamulla to do some food shopping, meat at the butchers and bread at the bakery. Had lunch at the Cunnamulla Café, focaccia and a wrap. Looked into the information centre and grabbed a few more brochures before shopping at the IGA convenience store. Back to camp for a rest before we went up the road to the Alan Tannock Weir where we found a few more birds including Royal Spoonbill, a few Australian Wood Duck and several other unremarkable species. Had Orange Ruffy, a fish we had bought at the butchers, for dinner.
Day 41 2/6/21
Warm night at 14ºc in the morning. No hurry this morning as we only had to go to Bowra Station just out of town. Went for a walk to the park entrance and had some good birds including White-winged and Purple-backed Fairy-wren, Red-capped Robin and Rufous Songlark. Packed up and left, called into the Sewage Ponds and found the Ballion’s Crake again and most other birds were the same as yesterday. Bush birds were better with Yellow-rumped Thornbill, Weebill, more Purple-backed Fairy-wren, Rufous Whistler and Rufous Songlark.

Then off to Australian Wildlife Conservancy property Bowra Station 16km out of Cunnamulla.
 |
| Old Fire Hydrant |
Arrived to find David and Maree the caretakers who knew nothing about our booking! A phone call to AWC HQ in Perth sorted it out and we got a site next to the old Shearing Shed. Unfortunately there is no more camping around the Lagoon, new regime in force with lots of rules. Got organised and went for a walk around the lagoon and cattle yards. Good birds here included Brown Quail, Common Bronzewing, and Grey-crowned Babbler.
 |
| Grey-crowned Babbler |
We had met up with an friend, Marion, who used to stay at Kingfisher Park Birdwatchers Lodge Julatten, when we were running it. We have met Marion at Bowra before as she is a regular visitor there. Went to evening bird call and had an enjoyable dinner and evening with Marion. Before we went to bed the weather was looking threatening with grey clouds.
Day 42 3/6/21
Light drizzle overnight resulted in 6mm. Woke up with a headache so went for a walk along the Bore Drain to clear it. Had hundreds of budgies and Cockatiel flying around plus a few other good birds Chestnut-rumped Thornbill, Greater Bluebonnet and White-browed Woodswallow. Back for late breakfast before checking out the T-van brakes, wheel bearings and shock absorber rubbers. Slight adjustment on the brakes on one side was all that was needed. I had a supervisor during this maintenance job, a Willie Wagtail who was hopping around the T-van. Willie Wagtail proved to be the most common bird found in all areas during this trip..
 |
| Willie Wagtail |
The rain had closed the roads around Bowra for 24 hrs, which allowed us to catch up on these jobs. Had lunch and with blue skies and sunshine as the temperature rose to 24ºC. Later in the afternoon we went for a walk along the Cottage Dam Track for an hour and had a Pallid Cuckoo, two Emu, two Spotted Bowerbird and actually saw a Crested Bellbird! There were also some Apostlebird along the track as well. It cooled down rapidly as the evening progressed. Bird call tonight was quiet with only three birders plus David and Maree. Quiet night before retiring to bed and putting on the extra sleeping bag.
 |
| Spotted Bowerbird |
Day 43 4/6/21
..
Lie in until 6.30 and not too cold a start to the day with 8ºC. Went for another walk along the Bore Track and the Lagoon – took a few photos of Black-tailed Native-hen in the lagoon and both White-winged and Purple-backed Fairy-wren along the track.
 |
| Black-tailed Native-hen |
Back for a cooked breakfast, scrambled egg and bacon on toast which warmed us up. As the roads were still closed we decided to go into Cunnamulla to do some food shopping. Stopped off at the Bakery to get some bread and a coffee with half a Sausage roll each. Then bought a few veggies at the greengrocers and IGA convenience store for a bit more food. Back to Bowra to find some of the roads had re-opened so after lunch we headed off to Gumholes, north and south via Cottage Dam. At last we found the dam as it was now signposted unlike previous visits when we missed it.
 |
| Bowra Track |
On the way to north Gumholes we found a White-winged Triller, Diamond Dove and Black-faced Woodswallow. Gumholes north was a bit disappointing as most of the access to the river had been rightly closed off due to an Aboriginal Sacred Site in that area. Then south Gumholes with slightly more access to the water, but not much on it. Did see a few raptors along the road, Australian Hobby and several Brown Falcon.
 |
| Brown Falcon |
Also two Brolga flew over and a single Red-capped Robin was seen. Called into the Gravel Pits, but no birds here, then had a look at Ian’s Place, Diamond Dove and a couple of Mallee Ringneck. Managed to get a shower before bird call and dinner – Sausage, real potatoes and runner beans. Once again the temperature was dropping fast.
Day 44 5/6/21
8ºc overnight so not so cold. Coffee and a walk around the lagoon and Bore Drain Track before breakfast. Managed good photos of Australasian Grebe and Red-backed Kingfisher.
 |
| Australasian Grebe - male and female |
 |
| Red-backed Kingfisher |
Had a hassle with not being able to use the shower and toilet we had been allocated as someone else was coming in to use them. Each camper is now allocated a shower unit for the duration of their stay due to Covid. We got relegated to the very basic day use toilet. Drove out onto the homestead circuit and across to Back Dam, saw a Brown Goshawk overhead.
 |
| Brown Goshawk |
Had a coffee here and watched 13 Emu come into drink along with hundreds of Budgies, Cockatiel and Zebra Finch. Overhead there were six White-browed Woodswallow.
 |
| Emu |
Then back tracked and took the airport track. Best birds were a Crimson Chat and Black-faced Woodswallow. Back to camp for lunch via the Eastern Track, where we had one male White-winged Fairy-wren perched on top of a small shrub. In the afternoon we headed off to Saw Pits and the Mulga Track. Not much at Saw Pits apart from the usual clouds of Budgies, many breeding, and Zebra Finch. Along the Mulga Track we had a Pallid Cuckoo, male Red-capped Robin and seven Hall’s Babbler
 |
| Pallid Cuckoo |
 |
| Red-capped Robin - male |
On the road back to camp we had six Bourke’s Parrot and seven Common Bronzewing. Tonight’s meal was fish, rice and veggies.
Day 45 6/6/21
Awoke after a cold night and 1ºC outside. Went for another walk along the Bore Drain Track.
 |
| Sign with a Willie Wagtail making sure I went the right way! |
After breakfast we headed back to Saw Pits and the Mulga Walk again. Arrived at the Mulga Walk and sat down beside a small pool of water to watch the Zebra Finch and two Bourke’s Parrot. A walk along the Mulga Track produced Purple-backed Fairy-wren and a pair of Red-capped Robin, Lindsay also saw Pallid Cuckoo, Brown Goshawk and Hooded Robin. Not much at Saw Pits on the way back, Australasian Darter, White-necked Heron and eight Grey-crowned Babbler. Back to camp for lunch and a rest. In the afternoon we went to Ian’s Place to look for the reported Black Honeyeater, but no luck. Lindsay did see a Peregrine Falcon with prey. Also here were 21 Diamond Dove and two Little Friarbird. Then on to the trough at the start of the Western Paddock Track, not much going on here until Lindsay found a Spotted Harrier flying around giving us fantastic rear views and a few rear view photos, bird of the day. Best rear view shot we could get! We watched it quartering the area for about ten minutes.
 |
| Spotted Harrier |
Stopped at the junction of the Tablelands Track and found more Purple-backed Fairy-wren and an Inland Thornbill.
 |
| Inland Thornbill |
It was getting late so we headed back to the homestead and camp ground in the late afternoon sunshine.
 |
| Bowra Road as the sunset |
Bird call tonight was 94 species.
Day 46 7/6/21
Coldest night yet in the T-Van on this trip 0ºC with frost on the windscreen and T-van.
 |
| Icy Windscreen |
Up early despite the cold to have coffee and a bacon sandwich to warm us up. Scraped the frost off the windscreen and headed off to Western Paddock at 7.30am. Saw some Mulga Parrot at the Stony Ridge jump-up so we stopped for good looks and notice something on the ground underneath the tree, it was a Chestnut-breasted Quail-Thrush! Checked it out and found a second one, unfortunately they were too quick for photos, unlike the Mulga Parrot.
 |
Mulga Parrot - male |
Headed to Bottom Dam, where we had a pair of Brown Falcon displaying plus two Bourke’s Parrot and three Singing Honeyeater. Continued on to Top Dam, where we stopped for morning coffee. Not much around apart from Zebra Finch coming in to drink plus a Crested Bellbird visited and let me take a few photos. A few raptors were in the sky including Spotted Harrier, Little Eagle, Australian Hobby and Brown Falcon.
 |
| Crested Bellbird |
Then back to camp for lunch and off to the Homestead where we were granted permission to have a shower. Started to pack up some of our stuff in readiness for leaving tomorrow. Checked out the Lagoon and found 152 Cockatiel coming in to drink. Had a quick walk around the Bore Drain Track, where White-wing Fairy-wren was showing well and Cockatiels were lining up. The Bore Dam had Eastern Great Egret, White-necked Heron and two Australian Grebe.
 |
| Cockatiel |
Finished the walk with a Rufous Songlark who obliged and let me take a few photos.
 |
| Rufous Songlark |
Time for bird call in the old shearers shed, met a few new people. Two of them had been following our travels on eBird. Heard some Whistling-Duck fly over and took the spotlight over to the lagoon to find eight Plumed Whistling-Duck.
Day 47 8/6/21
As usual another cold morning, our last at Bowra. Had a last walk along the Bore Track and found the Whistling Kite on it’s nest. Packed up and said goodbye to our neighbours Jeff and Donna, hopefully we can catch up with them in the future. Next destination was Charleville. Passed through Cunnamulla and took the Charleville road. Stopped at Wyandra, where we pulled off the highway to find the toilets, but were sent in circles around the town by signs pointing in the wrong direction. Eventually found them! Left town heading north towards Charleville and some very black clouds, which turned into rain. The rain stopped as we neared Charleville, arrived and parked up in town. Looked for a café to get some lunch, the Bakery looked crowded so we ended up at the Blue Gum Café. Had a tub of chips for a treat as well as a couple of toasted sandwiches. From here we went to the Charleville Bush Caravan Park where we had a nice big drive through powered site. We were greeted by a Grey Butcherbird killing a piece of bread!
 |
| Grey Butcherbird |
Took it easy for the afternoon catching up on eBird surveys before going on a short bush walk, not many birds showing. Early night as the evening was getting cold again.
Day 48 9/6/21
3ºc outside this morning, 8ºc in the T-van. Had a walk around the perimeter fence and found a lot more birds than yesterdays walk, also this Oliver Tractor. This American company has a fascinating history.
 |
| Oliver Tractor |
Apostlebird were most obvious birds this morning with 32, several Pale-headed Rosella ssp palliceps were perching on the perimeter fence and three Grey-crowned Babbler were the best seen.
 |
| Pale-headed Rosella - ssp palliceps |
Back for breakfast and pack up. Then decided to go to the Charleville Sewage Treatment Works, which we found, but could not quite find a way in. We had the T-van and did not want to go down the narrow bush tracks. We had been here before, but could not remember the access! So we left town on the Tambo Road stopping at the bridge over the Warrego River for morning coffee. Then on to Augathella, where Lindsay took photos of the art work on the water tower.
 |
| Tower Art |
 |
| Tower Art |
Pushed on to Tambo for a lunch stop at Lake Tambo Rest Area. We arrived to be greeted by lots of caravans and a dry lake. Had lunch with 10 Willie Wagtails and one Australian Magpie.
 |
| Willie Wagtail |
Sat in the sun to warm up. From here it was just over 100km to Blackall, our overnight destination. Arrived in Blackall and registered at the information centre within the library for a night at the Barcoo Riverside Camp. Arrived at the camp ground with plenty of other vans, but we managed to find a good spot to ourselves. Still cooling down quickly in the evening so we put on more layers and the sleeping bag on the bed.
Day 49 10/6/21
Down to 0ºC overnight, had a lie in the hope it would warm up, but by 7.00am it was no warmer. Had our warming coffee and went for a walk around the Barcoo River. Had a Sacred Kingfisher, several Pale-headed Rosella and a few Australian Reed-Warbler calling from the reeds.
 |
| Sacred Kingfisher (file photo) |
Back for pack up and breakfast before heading north for Barcaldine 109km away. Stopped for an hour at Douglas Ponds Rest Area, which is a big area suitable for camping with a toilet.. Went for a walk and found a few birds including Double-bar Finch and Brown Honeyeater, two species we had not seen much of. Also a family of Purple-backed Fairy-wren called by.
 |
| Double-bar Finch |
 |
| Purple-backed Fairywren - (female) |
Then onto Barcauldine, where we found the town full of caravans and one T-van parked up. Continued past them to the Barcauldine Showground where we booked in for the night, found a site by the oval and set up.
 |
| Barcauldine Showground Camp |
The floodlights next to the T-van had a Nankeen Kestrel perched looking for a meal on the oval.
 |
| Nankeen Kestrel |
Lunch and a rest before going back into town and Lagoon Creek, where there is a short walk leading to the Barcauldine Town Common. Some water in the creek was attracting two White-necked Heron, two Eastern Great Egret, an Australasian Darter, Australian White Ibis and a party of at least 50, mainly juvenile, Chestnut-breasted Mannikin.
 |
| Chestnut-breasted Mannikin - juvenile (file photo) |
Then headed off to find the Barcauldine Sewage Ponds, but they were fortified and we could not get near the them, so we went next door to the truck stop. Filled up the car with the cheapest fuel in town at $1.39.7 (12c litre cheaper than the dearest in town!). Back to the showground for showers and dinner. Noisy with footy practice on the oval and floodlights on, this eventually stopped and the music from the gym boomed out.
Day 50 11/6/21
The night continued on from the evening with noisy trucks rumbling through town, the sprinklers for the oval came on about 12.00am and washed the T-van tent, we thought it was raining!. The occasional train came by, one particularly at 5.30am hooting it’s horn and shunting the wagons. Up early just after 6.00am to 3ºc and had our usual coffee and packed up to go into town for breakfast. Went to the Ridgee Didge Cafe and I had two eggs on toast, hash-brown, ham and spinach, Lindsay had a breakfast roll with hash-brown all excellent! Then onto the Aramac Road north, which is mainly single lane bitumen, but long stretches are being made into wider sections. Did see our an Australian Bustard, the first since our stay at Pinnarendi, along this stretch of road. Called into Aramac before more single lane road, some quite wide, turned off the Muttaburra Road onto the Torrens Creek Road. More wider sections along here, stopped at the Nat Buchanan Bridge, over Cornish Creek for a break. Big area here suitable for camping. The road continued from here through flat Mitchell Grass plains, which were dotted by sparsely growing trees. Saw two groups of three Brolga standing beside the road before turning off the road into Moorinya National Park to drive the 16.5km to the Shirley Shearing Shed camp ground. Set up in our allotted site 4.
 |
| Moorinya National Park Camp |
Lunch and a restful afternoon listening to the lovely sound of a Pied Butcherbird giving us it’s full repertoire. Our only companions for the afternoon were Aussie Bush Flies! We had managed to avoid them for most of our trip, so can’t really complain. A fitting end to the day was a pair of Galah visiting as the sun went down.
 |
| Galah (male & female) |
Day 51 12/6/21
After a warmer night, down to 4ºC, we left the campsite, passing the adjacent Shirley Shearing Shed.
 |
| Shirley Shearing Shed |
On the way out we saw six Australian Bustard beside the track. Back on the main road we headed north to Torrens Creek along a nice wide bitumen road to begin with. About 35km south of Torrens Creek the road turned to a wide gravel road with corrugations and sandy ridges. Further along there was roadworks in progress sealing a long section of road, then some more bitumen leading into Torrens Creek. Once on the road to Charters Towers we encountered plenty of caravans and trailers, but not too busy. Stopped off at the Campaspe Rest Area for a morning coffee and Lindsay took over driving to ChartersTowers just over an hour away. Pulled up at Brownson Park for lunch, a usual stop for us. From Charters Towers it was along the main road with a stop at the Reed River rest area before we reached Townsville. Booked into the Rowes Bay Beachfront Holiday Park for three nights. Good job we had pre-booked as they were fully booked. Set up had coffee and showers as well as a few hours relaxing. Marty, who we had known for many years, had seen us from his house opposite the Holiday Park and came over to say hello and have a chat. Early evening we went over to visit our friend, who lives adjacent to the Holiday Park and have dinner with her. As on most visits I had a job to do, this time setting up a new remote for her TV. Heard the resident pair of Barking Owl calling in the evening.
 |

Day 52 13/6/21
Nice warm night, which we would have to acclimatise to after being away in cold country for seven weeks. Consequently we did not sleep too well. After early morning coffee I went for a walk to Rowes Bay and around Belgian Gardens and did a couple of bird surveys. New birds for our trip list were two introduced species, Spotted Dove and Scaly-breasted Munia. A pair of Blue-winged Kookaburra were perched along the foreshore on some machinery being used to replenish sand along the beach, good photo opportunity.
 |
| Blue-winged Kookaburra |
Meanwhile Lindsay was catching up on some laundry. Then went of to our friends for breakfast before going to see Jason at Horizon Campers to talk T-vans. Then headed off to Bunnings for a few small items as well as coffee and a light lunch. Back to camp where a few screws were replaced on the T-van. Had a restful afternoon apart from the sandflies! Caught up with some eBird surveys until the laptop battery ran out. In the evening we went out to Wild Rice, a Laos & Thai restaurant with a few friends. Nice food, but small portions.
Day 53 14/6/21
Up at first light, 6.15 for a coffee and showers. Tried to go for a walk along Rowes Bay, but rain showers started so had to make a hasty retreat to the T-van. We tidied up and again went around to our friends place place for breakfast, scrambled eggs, which Lindsay made. After breakfast we headed of to do some food shopping along with a few other items we did not know we wanted! Then off to some more friends for a chicken and salad lunch with plenty of chatting about our trips. The rain had cleared away and the sun was shinning so we headed off to the Townsville Town Common Conservation Park. Lots of water and grass, but not many birds especially waterbirds which were all but non-existent. At the entrance to the common on our way out a small body of water had a male Black-necked Stork dancing around trying to catch a meal, managed a few photos.

Then back to the T-van to find we were surrounded by families with kids, well we did have two days without neighbours. Didn’t stay long as Lindsay had promised to cook dinner at our friends house with a few other friends. Had a pleasant chatty night before returning to our campsite.
Day 54 15/6/21
Not a good nights sleep as it was quite warm, only dropping to 24ºC. Early start to pack up, have our last breakfast and say goodbye at our friends house. But as we were leaving another friend from over the road, who we had known for many years, came over for a chat through the park fence. We eventually got on the road just before 9.00am and into the Townsville traffic and roadworks. Cleared all this after Bluewater and continued on with a few more roadworks to the Francis Creek Rest Area just south of Ingham. Had a coffee and headed over the range to Cardwell, where we thought we might get lunch, but we arrived too early. So we decided to go to Tully for lunch and Lindsay took over driving at Cardwell. On the way into Tully we caught up with a slow moving bus (Built for comfort not speed!) with United Welsh on the back. I was interested in this bus from the UK as I had been a bus enthusiast in my earlier years. It had both it’s British registration and an identical one from Western Australia on the back. It turned into Tully and went off at a roundabout whilst we went straight on into town where we parked up and found the Ripe Harvest café we had visited before. After lunch as we were leaving Tully we saw the bus again parked up at the showgrounds camping area so we had to find out more about it. We knocked on the door and the lady owners partner came out. He told us that his partner bought the bus in the 60’s and in 1982 drove it overland to Singapore, where it was shipped to Perth. They were on their second trip around Australia in it and as he said it was probably the only Bristol built bus in Australia. NCY 627 bus history.

After all this excitement we headed to South Johnstone to visit some friends and have a coffee and a chat. Then onto Henrietta Creek to add a few rainforest birds to our trip list. Lindsay took over the driving at Tarzali until Mareeba. As we left Mareeba we could see a big pall of smoke ahead. As we neared it it became denser and denser until we could not see the road and I drove across to the wrong side of the road and onto the grass verge. Luckily a bit of the smoke cleared enough to see where the road was and I managed to get onto the right side of the road, narrowly missing a car going the opposite way. We cleared the smoke, which was the result of a burn off, but nobody was in attendance. Too much excitement of the wrong kind at the end of our trip. No more incidents and we safely arrived home after 54 days on the road and 8,126km’s.
Information
Most of the bird images were taken with Olympus micro 4/3 camera, the OM-D E-M1 Mark III with Olympus Zuiko 300mm F4 PRO lens + M.Zuiko Digital 1.4x Teleconverter. This is a great combination for bird photography, it is lightweight in comparison to full frame digital cameras. Some of the scenic images were taken on a phone, tablet and compact Lumix camera by Lindsay.
