7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday week #138

in #travel6 years ago

Hello fellow Hivers!

Welcome to my 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday.

Today, you can participate by submitting your personal pictures from your travels to the continent of Australia. I am also adding New Zealand to the same challenge as there were some concerns from other Steemians as to which continent NZ belongs to.

Please see the winner of the last week´s Australian Monday @betterthanhome with the following entry:

Cruiseship in Sydneys Harbour. When I was in Sydney a few weeks back and we were walking home over the Harbour Bridge, this huge Cruiseship was leaving the Harbour. To maneuver such a large ship in reverse gear from the port really requires a lot of skill. There is only a few meters left between the Opera House and the suburb of Kirribilli on the other side. Kudos to the captain!

My last day in Australia I had a walk in Royal Botanic Garden in Sydney a heritage-listed major 30-hectare botanical garden, event venue and public recreation area located at Farm Cove on the eastern fringe of the Sydney central business district.

Green Tree Snake, Noosa Nationalpark
On saturday morning we went on a morning adventure into the Nationalpark in Noosa Heads in Queensland, Australia.

On the way out of the park we discovered this beautiful tiny Common Tree Snake also called Green Tree Snake. It is a slim, large-eyed, non-venomous snake that is diurnal. We were told by another guy standing around, that just minutes before we arrived she had a little lizard for breakfast.

A fascinating and beautiful animal and this shot is already one of my favourite wildlife shots I took.
