Last stop, Fitzroy Falls in the heart of the Southern Highlands.  It was late in the day, very windy, and VERY cold.  Of course the boys wanted to see everything....

Our first view of the falls, from above.  A very steep drop, and well fenced.

A view from across the canyon.  Notice how the water falls straight initially, but then get blown to the left as the wind picks up

Spectacular view into the park; unfortunately, the camera lens can't capture how deep is the gorge.
Here is John pointing out how many *more* places we could see.

A rare lyre bird.  Apparently very shy and fearful of noise.  This one must have been deaf, as we were right in front of it

In the park's visitors' center, John checks out a mechanical trigger plant
