Magnetic Island

Magnetic Island

A few days ago we went to "Maggie" Island 20 minutes off the mainland from Townsville where we had a really amazing time! We saw 3 koalas and a wedge tailed eagle the largest eagle in Australia. The first koala was large and hunched and the second was the cutest, it woke up and was just about to reach out for a eucalyptus leaf when it fell asleep again. The third koala was fat although not as fat as the first one, he looked furrier than the others. I wanted them to fall out of the tree into our arms so we could cuddle them! They mainly sleep and eat; they can sleep for 23 hours a day because of the drug in eucalyptus leaves.

Also on Maggie Island we went through a butterfly forest which was full of hundreds of butterflies many of which had intricate black patterns. In that forest we saw lots of noisy flying foxes - fruit bats!

We've been having a great time in Australia; we've seen so many interesting birds - even a mohecan pigeon! We've seen kangaroos, rock wallabies and all sorts of wildlife we've even seen a crocodile! We've been to a lot of beaches and it's about thirty degrees so we have to put sun screen and hats and swimmers with rash vests on every day!

The day ends at 6ish so we see the moon more and it's different its a smiley face! And it's sometimes orange. The stars are different too.
At the campsite we see lots of different campervans some are even house shape which look fun to live in. It's very fun living in a campervan because we children get to sleep in the top bit and we also get to have lots of barbies!
