Kakadu is home to more than 2,000 plant species, three of which are Pandanus varieties.

The most common Pandanus is the Screw Palm (Pandanus Spiralis), locally known as Manbelk in Kunwinjku language.

We are currently seeing the change from Wurrkeng (cold weather season) into Kurrung (hot dry weather season).

Throughout this time, sea turtles lay their eggs on the sandy beaches of areas such as Field Island.

Good morning 😁 from Kakadu National Park!

We are starting the day with a gorgeous sunrise on the wetlands of Yellow Water (Ngurrungurrudjba).

The wetlands are home to more than 60 native species of birds 🦅 and the estuarine/saltwater crocodile🐊.

What gets you excited for the weekend? For us, it's getting outdoors and exploring the stunning and ancient landscape of Kakadu National Park. There is so much to see and experience within Kakadu’s 20,000 square kilometres.

Crocodiles can even see underwater.

In local language, crocodiles 🐊 are called kingas (pronounced ging-us).
