TULLY RIVER WONDERMENT

TOTALLY FANTASTIC, THE TULLY RIVER WAS GREAT, ONLY 16 OR SO KILOMETERS BUT WHAT A SCENIC WICKED SPOT. THE VEGETATION IS RAIN FOREST TYPE WITH BIG LEAVE AND DENSE COVER, THE WATER WAS CLEAR AND CRISP.. THE RIVER FLOW IS DIRECTLY FROM THE HYDROLOGIC DAM FLOWS THAT KEEP THE RIVER AT CONSTANT RAFTING LEVELS. YESTERDAY THE WATER WAS SUPERB TONS OF WHITE WATER LITERALLY CUBIC TONS. I SAW AN EEL, AND LOTS OF LITTLE FISH AND SOME ALRIGHT SIZED PERCH MAYBE .5 KG BUT PRETTY, LOTS OF ULYSSES BUTTERFLIES AND HERONS AND TROPICAL BIRDS LIKE LAURAKEETS. LOVELY SPECIES.
