Don't dismiss the little things.. like this insanely cute Spider Mite (Acari) we came across on a night walk with Aussie Macro Photos

This fella was super speedy, which made for a hilarious photo session 💥🤣 Definitely one of my highlight critters.

If you're yet to explore the micro-sized wildlife, you're missing half the fun! 🌿🕺

I just had to share this gorgeous lady one more time ❤️

Red-tailed black cockatoos have such a sweet and graceful call compared to our more common Sulphur-Crested.

It's exciting to hear a flock in the distance or flying over head, but they're even more fun to photograph 😎

Introducing Melanie – Our Expert Nature Guide

We are pleased to introduce Mel, who joined our touring business just over a year ago. Since her arrival, we have been incredibly fortunate to have her as part of our team.

As a Cairns local, Mel possesses a deep passion for the rich and diverse landscapes of Tropical North Queensland. Her enthusiasm for nature and wildlife is truly infectious, and she excels in connecting guests to the unique beauty of this remarkable region. 🌿

Over the past year, Mel has quickly advanced within the ranks, becoming our lead Nature Guide for our Multi-Day Nature and Wildlife Tours. We are excited to continue working with Mel in 2025 and to share more unforgettable adventures with our guests. 💚

Mel has only called us once for help after getting bogged in the mud, but it WAS the rainy season, and Mel found her own way out! 😁🛞💩 Who doesn't love a bonus adventure!?

Thank you, Melanie, for being such a pleasure to work with!

😎🙏

Meet Austracantha, aka the Christmas Spider! 🧡🖤❤️

This absolutely gorgeous critter had me transfixed for half an hour, trying to capture the greatest angle with the overcast sky.

Good Morning Handsome 👋👋

This 'Lovely' Fairywren male had at least 785 girlfriends in tow, but I they were blending in easier, evading my camera!

The females definitely get my plumage vote though, so pretty! 🐦🌿

FNQ Nature Tours throwing an enormous shout out to David from Solar Whisper Daintree River Crocodile & Wildlife Cruises and Jason from Back Country Bliss Adventures for their help tonight!

The Daintree Ferry was having technical difficulties and we had to leave our vehicle on the other side. At Midnight, both David and Jason were quick to put their hands up, and went above and beyond to help our customers get home safely.

It's very comforting to know we have friends in the field when things don't go to plan. 💚 Thanks fellas, Merry Christmas

And to poor Gavin, who is going to tough it in the van overnight... you're a champion mate 🏆 👊

I'm always hoping for one decent shot in focus when firing off the . I was chuffed to get this male Shining Flycatcher with his beak open. It could be better, but hey, it can ALWAYS be better 🤓

Not far from his nest and partner, on our Daintree River Cruise 🌿
