Day 47: Kakadu to Pine Creek: 240km

All day in Kakadu again: Cooinda, Yellow Water Billabong cruise, hiking and swimming at Maguk, then to the Lazy Lizard Caravan Park at Pine Creek for a pub dinner and beer.

A Jacana (aka lotus bird, lily trotter or Jesus bird) has evolved to have these long toes so it can walk on lily pads, seemingly walking on water


Fun fact, during one big wet season, this pontoon floated off its poles (pilings?) - amazing amount of water given the vast flat spaces around.

They are all fat here because the feeding is so good

 A big one



The "thrill seeker" bird (I just named it)

Maguk (Barramundi) falls - the only place to swim in Kakadu
