Adels Grove to King Fisher Camp

---

Todays journey from Adels Grove to King Fisher Camp took us through working cattle stations along the way, massive amounts of cattle and continual changes of landscape & scenery.

On arrival at King Fisher Camp, on the banks of the Nicholson River, time for a spot of fishing, Pete & Tim busting to try these gold bombers on a big barra. It didn't take Jane & myself long to work out, we weren't going to catch a fish here, the river was very pretty, and apparently quiet a few fresh water crocs in there as well, but we were warned that there could be the odd salty as well, no swimming for us.

Late afternoon, and we take a drive out to Goose Swamp, this is a huge wetland teaming with bird life and a dozen or so horses grazing quietly around the edge. After following the track to the swamp, we decide to walk along the edge of the swamp back to our cars, our voices alerted to horses to our presence and Pete gives them a whistle, and they come bolting over, Jane & I jumped through the fence, Pete & Tim decided to stay on the same side of the fence as the horses, Pete the horse whisperer, managed to get close enough to quietly pat them. Oh mym husband the horse whisperer!
