More Tips on Cairns from Travelers
Cairns City
- Buddha tree. The trunk of a bodhi tree or peepal tree in Cairns Australia. This is the type of tree under which the Buddha sat (for 49 days!) till he received enlightenment. I am not a Buddhist, but I thought that Buddhists may like a photo of a bodhi tree. The botanical name is appropriate: Ficus religiosa. For those who appreciate the wonders of nature, you may enjoy visiting the page “Divine designs God’s creation” on my site Tracts4Free.wordpress.com which has photos of all sorts of wonderful things in nature.

- A pair of sunbirds live right outside my front door. I planted these flowers, and a few others, because I know they like to sip nectar from these flowers, and it has worked like a charm. For those who live in the Americas who are familiar with hummingbirds, sunbirds are the equivalent birds in Australia, through Asia and Africa. They are typically not quite as small as hummingbirds, but are usually very colourful, and can hover to sip nectar out of flowers. This is a male Olive-backed or Yellow-bellied sunbird.

Cairns Cemetery
- I like the way the soft late afternoon light illuminates the face of this bird. Bush stone-curlews are nocturnal, and their big eyes help them to catch insects at night. These birds are also extremely well camouflaged when lying on stones, or dead leaves and twigs, but easy to see here on a lawn.

Mount Whitfield Environmental Park Cairns
- Rain makes rain forests, but rain forests also make rain. Billions of bacterial particles combine with transpired and evaporated moisture to form and seed clouds which then rain on the forests in a magical natural cycle. Photo taken in Mount Whitfield National Park, Cairns, Australia.

Cairns Aquarium
- A Honeycomb Stingray checks me out as it swims past at the Cairns Aquarium. I love the dazzling camouflage pattern. Also known as a Reticulate Whipray, and found in the Indian Ocean off East Africa through to Taiwan and south to Australia in the Pacific Ocean.
