If it sounds familiar, then it should. This quirky hotel was made famous in the blockbuster movie Crocodile Dundee.

The population has increased, at least by the signage, by 10 people in the last 30 years. It also happens to be the most westerly town in Queensland as the Northern Territory border is only 14 km to the west. (Camooweal, possibly one of the best ballads Slim Dusty ever recorded - it was written by "Mack" Cormack - Slim sang this in just about every concert he did) 11.30am – Depart Camooweal Crossing the NT boarder, we gain 30 minutes - put your clocks back 30 minutes 01.45pm – Arrive Barkly Homestead, Tablelands NT (lunch provided) Barkly Homestead is a remote roadhouse situated on the Barkly Highway, halfway between Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory and Camooweal in Queensland.

Explore the remains of the 1960s buildings. Newcastle Waters has a rich, vibrant history as a gathering place for drovers on their gruelling overland cattle drives. It is located at the junction of three major overland stock routes and was an important source of provisions and a place to rest before drovers continued on their way. The township has become a ghost town, but you can safely explore preserved historic buildings such as Jones's Store and the Junction Hotel - both reminders of the pioneering era. The Drover's Memorial Park, featuring a bronze statue of a drover, is also a must see. 02.20pm – Depart Newcastle Waters 04.00pm – Arrive Daly Waters Historic Pub, Daly Waters NT A true-blue outback pub - the Daly Waters Pub is a colourful pub, clad in corrugated iron, draped with bougainvilleas and crammed with decades of memorabilia. It began its current incarnation serving passengers arriving on the new Qantas airline in 1934 and was the first international runway and airport in Australia. As a popular watering hole along the track, the Daly Waters Pub holds a liquor licence that has been in continuous use since 1938. The pub is on the old droving track and was a watering hole for the drovers as well as travellers heading north and south. It was used as a staging post during the Second World War for the Australian and American Air force. There is a static historical display housed in the WWII hangar at the airport. 07.00pm – Dinner (Barra n Beef on the BBQ provided) Day 7 – Friday 10th June 07.00am – Breakfast Provided 09.00am – Depart Daly Waters 12.30pm – Arrive Katherine Gorge Nitnit Dreaming Cruise (lunch provided) A trip to the Northern Territory is not complete without visiting the spectacular “Nitmiluk Gorge”. Open all year round, it features some of the most stunning gorge scenery in the Northern Territory, with raging waterfalls, a myriad of wildlife and breathtaking views of the Jawoyn country. Nitmiluk Gorge winds along 12km of sheer rock extending more than 70m high. Consisting of 13 seperate gorges, Nitmiluk Gorge is a maze of waterways sculpted from the sandstone over countless millennia by the Katherine River. The essential cultural cruise, Nitnit Dreaming incorporates travel along two gorges, where you’ll discover the customs of the traditional landowners, the Jawoyn people. 04.00pm – Depart Nitnit Dreaming Cruise 05.00pm – Arrive Pine Tree Motel, Katherine NT The Northern territory’s third-largest town, Katherine is on the banks of the Katherine River, which flows from the nearby world-renowned Katherine Gorge (Nitmiluk National Park).

Tjupi Band played their hearts out for the crowd, even being joined on stage by Mayor Jeffrey McLaughlin, who got a reminder of how long it has been since he played hand drums, and what muscles he needs to use to play them. The bacon and egg sandwiches and coffee were popular, but café workers and volunteers kept the lines moving quickly. With the jumping castle, face painting and even a visit from Donald Duck the kids were able to have a barrel of fun while the adults enjoyed the live music.

Yet it is hard to see how such a list can be compiled until each of the states and territories has a list of its own. Several state lists have appeared in the last two decades, and the only large gaps remaining are the birds of Queensland and the Northern Territory. In choosing the second as my subject, I have undertaken much the lighter task; for the avi­ fauna of the Territory is impoverished compared to Queensland's, and its literature is far smaller. The present work is a compendium of what has been published on the occurrence, status, habitat and breeding season of Northern Territory birds, augmented with my own field notes and those of Dr. D. L. Serventy. No attempt has been made to fill the numerous gaps in the record by writing to museums and observers for information or by personally exploring un­ worked regions.

  • Birds of the Northern Territory
    WESTERN AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM SPECIAL PUBLICATION No. 7 Birds of tile I erritory Western Australian Museum Special Publication No. 7 Birds of the Northern Territory by G.M. Starr Perth 1977 EDITOR: A.F. LOVELL World List Abbreviation: Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. ISBN 0 7244 6281 3 ISSN 0083-873X Printed and published at the Western Australian Museum, Frands Street, Perth. 284411. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Introduction 7 List of Birds 8 Gazetteer ". 105 Index 115 5 ---------------------------- ----~--- INTRODUCTION Ornithology in the Northern Territory has proceeded by fits and starts. The pioneering work of Gilbert, Stokes and Bynoe in 1839-41 was followed by many decades in which little or nothing was added to our knowledge of northern birds. Then came the great period 1894-1916, when Keartland, Dahl, Le Souef, Tunney, Hill, Barnard, Rogers and .McLennan laid the foundations of Northern Territory ornithology. The next half century was one of quiet consolidation. In 1967 I brought out a List of Northern Territory Birds (Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. No. 4) which summarised our knowledge of distribution, relative abundance, habitat preferences, movements and breeding season. That paper was quickly rendered obsolete by a decade of intensive field work, notably by the Harold Hall Expedition to Arnhem Land etc., S.A. Parker and associates in Central Australia, D.N. Crawford and other CSIRO personnel in the far north, Julian Ford and colleagues in the far southwest, and W.H. Butler (on behalf of. the American Museum of Natural History) on Ellery Creek, the Roper and the Daly, and in the Pinkerton Range.
