Heron Island
Next we went to Heron Island Research Station
A wonderful place where you can either walk out on the reef at low tide or...
... or head out snorkeling at high tide. The house reef was nice too.
Lots of breeding noddies on the island
as well as 'mutton birds'- shearwaters that spend their nights on the island wailing mournfully. But when you see them at see, what grace...
The beach was also overrun with green turtles coming in to nest
I look like a refugee no?
