Mudflats of Toolara Esplanade Tin Can Bay January 2014

Exploring the Mudflats of the Toolara Esplanade, Tin Can Bay was an amazing experience of discovery, from watching millions of soldier craps scampering across the sand, finding see creatures within their shells and watching the beautiful water birds, it was a great experience in a beautiful tranquil location.
