We had an inauspicious start to the day with the credit card hacking but tried to pull it together to enjoy the last birding excursion to Inskip Point.  Two locations were planned – Bullock Point & Inskip Point.

At Bullock Point, a magnificent Brahminy Kite showed off his fishing skills.

Then a short walk up the access road revealed some Honey-eaters, Trillers and a Drongo.

I was still feeling uneasy about the hacking and didn’t want to leave the key in a box accessable by anyone so we had to be back before 10am to check out.  We took a brief drive to Inskip Point which is where you get ferries to Fraser Island.  It is also a very popular camping area as seen by all the people there.  You can’t go all the way in a small car, it’s very sandy and 4×4 track only so we didn’t spend much time before turning back.

The roads here are in much better condition than the one yesterday.

Coming back, we saw several cute Rainbow Bee-eaters hanging out on the phone wires – doing their job and actually eating bees!

Here’s a snapshot of the small town at Rainbow Beach – a few stores, hotels and pubs.  Typical holiday town!

This is where we stopped for breakfast, just a short walk from the beach. A Magpie-lark was hanging around hoping to score some leftovers.

The Crested Pigeon blended in so well we almost didn’t see him!  Under better circumstances, we would have hung around longer for more birding but I just wanted to get back and make sure my accounts were OK (no more hackings) so we drove back to Brisbane.  It was good to get an early start on a Sunday anyways to avoid traffic.
