Day seven saw us heading inland, from The Caves on the coast, through Emerald and up to Charters Towers. It was mainly a driving day, but we did find some roadkill along the way. We got some rooms at the Charters Towers pub and then headed out for a night drive.



Roadkilled lesser black whipsnake (Demansia vestigiata)




Roadkilled eastern bearded dragon (Pogona barbata)




Eastern spiny-tailed gecko (Strophurus williamsi)

The next morning we drove up to Tully Gorge.

Finding wild animals is very rewarding. Some days/nights are good, some are bad. It's easy to go out looking for them - you just drive along a road or walk along a track. You can increase your chances of finding them by understanding the habitats of the species in that area, and going out under favourable weather conditions. Figuring out what exactly constitutes favourable weather conditions is a science akin to alchemy.
