National birds

Keppel Harbour as seen from Imbiah Lookout. For lowlier views from the island of the dead, one must overlook the rampant scenes of pretty plasticity and descend the seawall onto a half-forgotten shore little touched by leisure suits. Here, in the shadow of a waxworks fort, there is an underwater world lost to national interests and shunned by beachcombers who prefer to pay the price for enclosed encounters with fishy captives and other corralled fragments of the life acrylic.
