Great morning on dry land for a change, with a few circuits of the island. Lots of wildlife and sunny weather until the rains came....had lots of raptors, swamp harriers, kites, a brown hawk and a few kestrels hunting in the nature parks. Love the eyes on this pair, one that decided to fly beside me. Both shot from the car seat.

As a final tribute to the loss of MotoGP, a few of our Aussie hero's to finish. On Saturday, they shone, with Jack Miller taking 7th place in the sprint race, Senna Agius in pole position with a minute to go and Joel Kelso taking 3rd on the grid. Sadly, the cancellation of Sunday's action meant no further glory for the Aussie trio. Riders are Miller, Agius and Kelso, with a Miller special to close out.

Paint swapping action from this weekend's final MotoGP at the historic Phillip Island track. It’s amazing how close these riders get to each other, sometimes deliberatly bumping each other at speed. Riders are 1. Gonzalez / Fernandez. 2. Marquez / Martin. 3. A. Marquez / Martin. 4. Zarco gives Fernandez a bump at 4 for the 3rd lap in a row.

A huge thank you to the Phillip Island & San Remo Advertiser for giving me media accreditation for the MotoGP "final roar", which actually turned out to be the "final pour" at the historic track at Phillip Island on the weekend. A few photos of the incredible lean angles these riders achieve at crazy speeds. Riders in order are Martin, Marquez, Bezzecchi, Agius, Canet, Miller.

"Life's a breach!". What an end to the cruise with Wildlife Coast Cruises prom cruise yesterday (21/10). With 20 mins to go, Captain Alyssa took us to this Mum, calf and es**rt. The calf treated us to 30 breaches, most of which were beside the boat. Nicknamed "smiley", the calf practised its breaching with eyes open and closed. Throw in some pec slapping and an es**rt with an old wound just in front of its dorsal fin. An encounter of a lifetime.

Mugging and a shy little calf from Monday's prom cruise (19/10) with Wildlife Coast Cruises. 10 whales logged and a 35min mugging by 2 beautiful whales who had fun swimming all around us ....plus a very quick encounter with a dwarf minke whale. Great tag teaming with Heidi on board as a second cit scientist.
