I had a fantastic time in 2008 at Kingfisher Park Birdwatchers Lodge and so
appreciated the walk led by Keith. Traveling all the way from California I
can say that this was a fun and adventuresome stop on my 2008/2009 parrot
filming adventure. It might seem like an odd one but what stands out to me
is the amazing out of this world sounds of scrub fowl calling at night
while in my tent and the deafening roar of the night insects in the
clearing down by the small creek. Beautiful memories. Thanks guys! - Don
