STEWART CREEK ROAD BIRD WALK.
The secret of this short walk is that it traverses many
different habitats in just one kilometer. Start in the
village and go as far as the bridge over Stewart Creek and
return. Watch out for traffic.
Now it is off
back down stream to the pontoon near the ferry where most of
the Daintree River tours depart from. Mangrove
Adventures, phone (the day before) 0740907010
This
is another 2 hour river trip seeing some of the mangrove
bird species.
CASSOWARY.
This has been quite
an adventure so far and to cap it off is a trip over the
river to the Jindalba Board Walk.
Simply catch the ferry and drive to Tulip Oak Road, Cow Bay.
This turn-off is at the corner where the Daintree Discovery
Centre is. Turn right and drive the short distance to
Jindalba. Cassowaries are often seen near the car park.
Enjoy the walks and keep a look out for Cassowaries.
With the early start you can now say that your birdwatching
day is done and you have finished off in the Daintree
National Park.
Where to now?
Lunch? Where? Cape
Trib? High Falls? Mossman? Port Douglas? Your choice.
I hope that you
have enjoyed the Birding Trail. |
