best place for holiday in Australia
My atlas has Australia in Australasia, not Asia.

Some spammers are just really stupid I guess.

Hi Pat
Yes it is expensive, but I confess I use it every time I go to East Africa

Weaver bird on Safari Cam
Just checked in and they have zoomed in on a weaver bird nest in an acacia
tree - where the adult is busy weaving away.
