Description

Raw and Untouched Northern Territory Series by Lexa Harpell.
Timeless Kakadu Series by Lexa Harpell.

Early morning over Yellow Water Billabong, Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory, Australia.

At the end of Wet Season, the grasses are lush and the billabong waters full. A tiny Kingfisher sits on a branch in the centre looking for food. I'm not a 'birder' as such, however Sacred and Forest Kingfishers with these particular markings live in the area.

There are over 860 World Heritage listed sites worldwide. Recognised as places of outstanding value to humanity.

Kakadu National Park is one of only 25 World Heritage sites listed for both cultural and natural values. *Australia has four in this category.

Kakadu is filled with natural and cultural wonders. Raw, wild beauty, timeless rock formations and ancient Aboriginal ‘Rock Art’. Rock Art tells stories, teachings, timelines, history.

Evidence from findings, ‘Rock Art’ and DNA have proven Australia’s Aboriginal civilization is the oldest on the planet, dating back some 50,000 years.

Cut off from rising sea levels, they became genetically isolated.
Kakadu is not a ‘modern’ tourist park, rather a raw and less touched area of over 20,000 square kms. Only 5% is open to visitors, with some areas 4WD only access.
Pack your hiking boots, be prepared to drive on some unsealed roads, walk or rock scramble to breathtaking scenery.

I’m glad they have kept it as natural and untouched as possible for ‘us’ to witness. Remember this is a natural wilderness.
If you are unsure where you can take a cool dip in the rock pools ASK, ASK, ASK. Never assume you can swim everywhere.

WARNINGS: Crocodiles inhabit the area with signs everywhere to warn you NOT to enter or go near the water – rivers and billabongs.
Saltwater crocodiles are dangerous and deadly. They happen to be the only reptile that has not genetically altered since the Dinosaur Period.
