What we did?

This place has a lot of birds, and I mean a lot (Frogmouth Owl; Black necked Stork; Bush stone Curlews; Kookaburras; Parrots; Pigeons and Doves; Emus; Ducks and Geese; Cassowary; Australian Pelican; Finches; Cockatoos). I had a local black cockatoo sit on my shoulder and have a chat with me, he was so beautiful and it was very cute. You can swim with a crocodile here if you should choose to do so. I did not. I was more than happy looking at him from my seat on dry land. There are five different environments for your to explore here including Rainforest (my favourite), wetlands, savannah, nocturnal and woodlands. Port Douglas is a very beautiful place, so make sure you pop up there for a visit.
