Georgetown August 2026 III

Georgetown is one of the well-known places for star-gazing, so we were told.
I have no skill to take good pictures of them but the night sky was just so extraordinary 🌟🌟

After a good night sleep, we went out for another half day of birding in the outback.



Cumberland Campsite used to be a mining community, now is a campsite and a great place for birdwatching.
