Five days based in Weipa, high on the west side of Cape York Peninsula in far north Queensland. February: the steamy heat of the tropical wet season.
All photos were taken from a helicopter.

Great to see your fine documentation of this trip with the various atmospheric conditions, the diverse forests, the waterways and wetland, all from the point of view of a bird.
