Lakes

Behind this eastern end of the 90 Mile Beach are a number of interconnected fresh water lakes. 
Looks cold, yeh?  This guy built this craft himself out of three lengths of drainage pipes which he stuffed with polystyrene foam making it almost unsinkable.  The pilot, a dog,  is sitting in the backward facing chair.  Off the pub for a meal, turns out.  Brilliant fishing platform, complete with sun shade,  not needed today.

 I think this is a Skua.  There were a number on the beach.  I have been attacked by their cousin's off the coast of Scotland.  A very Hitchcock experience that was!!!

 In the fresh water lake,  these are Royal Spoonbills both pretending sleep, standing on one leg.

A Cape Barren Goose.  A solitary fellow, unlike geese and ducks that like company.
