Before what became a grand sunrise, we were on the shore for some top birding and hiking in the forest. Many birds started moving around and calling incessantly and before mid-morning we had a good 40 species on our lists, including some Australian endemics. Later in the day we hiked to a cultural site with beautiful Gwion Gwion (Bradshaw) art and finished the day with some cocktails on the beach while a massive saltwater crocodile observed us patiently!
