Birds and Wildlife of Southeastern Australia

You will find here a selection of photos taken during our trip to New South Wales and Victoria Provinces, Southeastern Australia, in October 2017. During this trip, we explored the area surrounding Sydney and Melbourne, areas which are rich in scenery and wildlife. Around Sydney, in addition to visiting the parks and attractions of the city, we visited the Blue Mountain National Park, the Booderee National Park, and the Royal National Park. A plane brought us to Melbourne for a visit of the Wilson's Promontary, the Great Otway National Park, the Great Ocean Road, the Grampians National Park, Little Desert National Park and Dandenong Ranges National Park. Overall, we spent about 30 days exploring these areas by car.
