desert bush and on the lake looking at the tracks of animals and the
incredible colours. Today you will see cigar shaped volcanic rock
formations 1500 million years old, birdlife including wedge tailed
eagles, and lots of wildlife. During the afternoon drive through a
constantly changing landscape via Thurlga sheep Station to Kangaluna
Camp. At Corrobinnie Lakes you get the chance to see the amazing colours
of the ochre rock the Aboriginal people used to decorate themselves for
ceremonies. Enjoy sunset pre dinner drinks on the beach at Sturt’s Lake. |

mammals in shallow water. Cross the bay to visit a resident colony of
rare Australian sea lions and experience playing face to face with these
agile and friendly mammals as you wade in protected shallow
lagoons. After lunch on the beach leave Baird Bay and visit Sceale Bay,
