Trip Report Ð Bells Creek Pelican Waters 2nd April 2006
On Sunday 2nd April Mike,
During the journey we sighted honeyeaters, a large flock of black swans, pelicans, ibis, a kingfisher, ospreys, kits, stilts, snipes, duck, brahminy kite and a goanna.
We paddled as far as was possible taking the left fork before deciding to turn around to scramble up to a local fishing spot for morning tea. There was the smell of a nighttime campfire still smoking nearby, obviously a popular spot with local 4WDers. Heading back we passed a few stray fishing/crabbing boats and enjoyed a leisurely paddle back with a slight breeze now behind us.
After having a B B Q,salads and hot cross buns I left the others behind enjoying a lazy afternoon under the trees, overlooking the water and look forward to the next Social Paddle.
