Lord Howe Island
May 2013
Arriving at Lord Howe Island
The little 35 seater to
Lord Howe…
Banyan tree…
The fish at Ned’s Beach
The hike to the top of Malabar and Kim’s
Lookout...
Getting ready to walk in
the dark to the restaurant…
Our kayak for the paddle
to Blackburn Island (in the distance on the right)…
Parked on Blackburn
Island… Phew!
Glass bottom boat tour to
view the coral gardens, loads of fish, and even a turtle…
The start of the trek up
Mt Gower…
Ball Pyramid, about 23km
from Lord Howe. At 570m above sea level,
the largest single
rock stack in the world…
The wild providence
petrel is weirdly very comfortable to be held.
This one came crashing
through the trees when our guide
made a bird call.
The currawong is not a
shy bird…
Wild orchards…
The endemic woodhen (back
from the brink of extinction)…
Around our accommodation…
View of Ned’s Beach from
the air…
