As you have seen there are many strange and beautiful animals in Australia. Kerri had been stalking these birds for a long time before she finally got a nice picture of the bright pink birds.
This guy was a bit easier being in an enclosure.
This was the first we saw of red kangaroo.
This poor dingo did not have a very long chain. He could at least rest under a tree in the shade.
There were some cool insets as well wandering around.
Sometimes even the twitchy little birds would stop just long enough for Kerri to get a shot.
Although Kerri usually makes it a point to chase the pigeons, this one had a Mohawk so it was only being harassed by the camera.

There were quite a few birds around. They could be doing a better job of eating the really annoying flies though.
This one was not sure what to make of us.

It eventually decided we weren’t that much of a threat and decided to look onward.
Even the ants are really big in the outback.

These are the really annoying flies we previously mentioned.

They go straight for your eyes, nose, mouth and ears. Thankfully we were in the outback when there weren’t that many. In the summer you have to get a net as they are in very thick swarms.
While we waited for sunset, mohawk pigeon hung out with us for a bit watching as well.
