Fong > More birds of prey, hovering around the cruise boat. Quite an awesome sight. (Photograph has been manipulated with the GIMP to remove window reflection and an annoying fly...no, I didn't add more birds!)
Fong > Crocodiles are not the only animals attracted to meat on the Adelaide River. Flocks of birds gathered to pick up a free meal from the boat. A lot of smaller birds of prey, kites I think, could be seen in Darwin as well. Sometimes they steal lunches, leaving behind nasty flesh wounds in the process. Apparantly, the cruise has a permit to feed these birds.
Fong > Younger crocodiles were more energetic in jumping for the meat.
Fong > The Jumping Crocodile Cruise on the Adelaide River, Northern Territory, was one of the included boat cruises in a 'Top End Highlight' 3-day bus tour run by Australian Pacific Tours. (This particular boat was not the one we travelled on).
Fong > Melaleuca, being the old and dominant fellow he is, took many, many hard looks at the meat before opening his jaws....
Fong > A little bit of meat tempts the crocodiles to come out!
Fong > Crocodiles are now a protected species in Australia, and quite a few can be seen during a short river cruise.
Fong > Melaleuca is an old male crocodile on the Adelaide River. I think Melaleuca is about seventy years of age. His right eye and face is damaged from a fight, and his teeth are somewhat worn. Apparantly, he features in a National Geographic magazine as 'the most photographed crocodile in the world'.
More birds of prey, hovering around the cruise boat. Quite an awesome sight.
