Volunteers from the community feed pelicans on the beach at 8:45 each morning. This started with a restaurant owner cleaning fish for the catch of the day over 40 years ago. The restaurant changed hands several times and 25 years ago volunteers took over the feeding. The gal gave us all kinds of info about pelicans.

This is Nature’s Window overlooking the Murchison River in Kalbarri National Park.

Roxy's shirt turned into a sahib head-cover due to the many bush flies. Not so different than mosquitoes in Alaska. Note to self, buy head nets!

We did the 8km loop hike from a viewpoint overlooking the river, down to the river and back up. This was a wide section of the trail along the river! We had to crawl along a narrow shelf with an overhanging ledge and drop off to the river. No chance for a picture, we were focused on getting through that section without going for a swim!

Overlooking Murchison River.

Lots of cool sandstone formations in the river gorge area.

Looking down at the river. It’s muddy from cyclone rains 8 weeks ago upstream 800km. It take 6 weeks for muddy water to reach Kalbarri and the Indian Ocean.

Some of the walking along the river was on very loose sand, a calf workout!

Coastal cliffs along the highway in Kalbarri National Park.

So many outstanding views! This section of Western Australia is called the coral coast.
