"Jacqui from Adelaide, South Australia" jaqs's Profile

Sam the miracle Koala bear survives the fires

Koala being helped during the Victorian Bush Fires

This poor little Koala (Sam) actually received help from the Fire fighter and swallowed three entire bottles of water. Its a miracle that it survived! Sam has been captured and is now recovering in a sanctuary.

Even the native animals are suffering in the heat

Icy drink for hot Koala bear in the heat

If you look inside at my Adelaide pages you will see this little furry Koala bear having a full bath to keep cool and doing it willingly!

Port Lincoln Bushfires

Bushfires approaching Port Lincoln January 2009

The fires were very close and some farm houses and buildings were sadly lost. No human loss of life in this bush fire but always a sad loss of wild life when these catastrophes occur.

Adelaide South Australia

Christmas Carols in the Park 2008

Please have a look at my Australian and Egyptian pages for a bit more information about some of my travel experiences and my own part of the world too.

The Magnificent power of Mother Nature

Lightening over the city and beach 28th Jan. 2009

Another picture of the Summer Lightening storm we had in February 2009.

Shark Sightings

Shark sighted just off the beach 28.01.2009

This photograph was taken by the Lifesavers Helicopter very close to Largs Bay beach in Adelaide South Australia

Just have a look at this!!!

Railway lines buckled under 45C degree heat

We are experiencing all time records for extreme heatwaves in Adelaide at the moment. This is what happened to the train tracks on the second day of five days so far over 40C heat... the day it reached 45.6C in the shade but much more of course in full sun.

The Pelican-His Beak holds more than his Belly can

Pelican being a lazy waiting to pinch the fish!

They are notorious all over South Australia both inland and on the coast... wherever there is water and fish. Their wing span is approximately 6 feet across and they fly all together in formation both morning and night in a huge shape of 'V'
