Lara Station near Barcaldine QLD is a fantastic place to stay a while. Easily reached via a good unsealed road just off the Landsborough Hwy
The camp surrounds a small permanent thermal lake that attracts lots of bird life. There's also a pool for campers to enjoy as well.
We recommend this spot highly, it was hard to tear ourselves away after a 3 night stay. Very friendly relaxed outback atmosphere.
Here's a few images from our stay.
Female Red-tailed Black ****atoo fly in to drink every evening.
Yellow-billed Spoonbill wade in the shallows on the lake edge oblivious to campers.
Whoopee!
Black-tailed Native Hen, also known as Turbo Chooks.
Red-winged Parrots among many others, fly in for a drink & bath.
Pink-eared Ducks love the lake/camp enviroment.
Thanks for viewing.
Cheers Keith & Judy

Fantastic bird photos again Judy and Keith. We had a pair of Pink Eared Ducks out from our camp at Greenhills Lake earlier this year. Lovely looking water bird. Rod.
