Lake Argyle…Kimberleys WA

We have arrived into Lake Argyle. It is like an oasis. Lake Argyle has a surface area of 1000sq km and a shoreline stretching 900km and is home to an estimated 30,000 freshwater crocodiles. It has over 70 islands. We took a cruise out onto Lake Argyle enjoying the opportunity for a swim and lunch. We saw so much wildlife. It was incredible.

This Jabaru was soooo sad. They mate for life and he returns each year waiting for his mate to arrive but she never comes. He apparently sits there year after year looking out over the lake waiting.
