Peaceful Dove - Campbell Springs, Northern Territory

Iwas under the impression that during the Dry Season in this area you can go months without ever seeing a cloud. Apparently that is either dead wrong or we are having some unusual weather. This morning was the third overcast morning in a row. I was up early though and decided to try and do some photography but the lack of light really did make it impossible. Since I had seen all the unusual birds in the area Idecided to take it easy and then move campsites in the afternoon.

I am not set up a bit further south at Mardugal. Tomorrow morning I will be going out on the 6:45 sunrise cruise on the Yellow Waters Billabong. Hopefully there will be a sunrise without too many clouds. After that I am headed back up to Jabiru to hopefully go out on one of the local rivers with Marc who I met the other day. Should be a nice day and I am looking forward to getting out on the water.
