Re: Adventures Down Under -- Seriously Overloaded with Pictures!!
The next day we drove for about three hours across beautiful Australian wilderness to visit Bob Irwin on his property, a nature preserve called Camp Chilli.
Remnants of wild fires that surrounded his property. When we drove past this again after dark, you could see ghostly flames flickering and some of the trees were glowing. But Bob's property remained untouched by the fires.
The entrance to Bob's property
Wild parrots enjoying the feeders
Bob's pony...a very friendly fellow. Wish I could remember his name!
We piled onto the backs of two "Utes" (utility vehicles) and one pickup truck, and went exploring
Brian does some SnakeBytes work as we release some wild carpet pythons Bob had caught messing with his chickens
The flies were crazy!
More wild carpet pythons
Mike got a little too close with his GoPro camera and nearly took a bite on the nose!
Koalas in the wild
This is an observation deck that Bob built himself. It was very cool to climb.

After dark "herping" on the deck of Bob Irwin's home

The next day we flew out to Darwin. While in Darwin, we did some herping at a park called Fog Dam, but I didn't get any pictures of that. Our second day in Darwin took us to Crocosaurus Cove where much adventure ensued!
Entrance
Peter, Colin, Seth, and Brian...hanging out at the entrance waiting for folks
Anna
Saltie skeleton
Classic bearded dragon
Handsome frilled dragon
This is a full grown monitor called the "blue line monitor"...still waiting on its own species designation
Lots of young salties, including a hypo
Brian gets ready to feed this big boy...
...and nearly feeds it his GoPro!
Brian and Peter in the "cage of death" with a huge wild-caught saltie named Chopper
Anna and me in the "cage of death" with Chopper. They feed him while we're in there and get him to slap his jaws closed and smack the cage right beside our faces! SO cool!!

If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.
