DAY THIRTEEN: Minnamurra rainforest

DAY THIRTEEN- Minnamurra rainforest

Oh it sounds so tropical and as though we have travelled hundreds of miles to the middle of nowhere. In fact we drove past a big water park and several houses along the road it is on. Minnamurra rainforest is a national park just outside of Jamberoo. It's apparently teeming with a huge diversity of life, today they must have all gone on holiday because we didn't see a great deal except two pretty large lizards and a hand full of Lyrebirds. There were dozens of birds calling and making a huge hubbub of noise strangely coming from one particular spot. We strained ourselves to see these different birds then all of a sudden a car alarm was sounding. We both looked perplexed since we are in the middle of the rainforest. It was a Lyrebird mimicking sounds, one minute it was a laughing Kookaburra and next it was a car alarm.
