Protected by a small sea of prickly lantana, this low but long Aboriginal rock art shelter below Corrabare Road has a number of figures.

The vertical, infilled eel has a fairly normal “eel like” shape – but an unusually shaped tail.

The seconf large, infilled figure, also appears to depict an eel.

At the opposite end of the shelter are more indeterminate charcoal and red ochre motifs.

Some of the red ochre motifs may depict human figures.

Within 10km of tiddalik this site is. There is another cave with art not far from this one, and a hearth. I found this site myself just for the fun of it, not hard to find, and I found another one that hasn’t been mentioned in any due dillidence reports. Hasn’t been mentioned anywhere. The owners of this blog will not be shown photos of the other site.
