Caleb turned 11 this month. Still the outside boy he got a fishing rod for his birthday and celebrated with his friends running through the rainforest shooting lasers at each other. Caleb's motto is , 'you only live once', not sure if that's a good motto to have or not!!! Still he is determined to live life to the full and packs in as much as he can.
Maybe having second thoughts about swimming in the sea here, at least for now!!
Swimmers scared to take a dip at Cairns family beach after croc spotted in water.
A viral video showing a saltwater crocodile swimming at a Cairns beach has locals scared to take a dip, but a wildlife expert says there's far worse things in the water to worry about.
The 10-second clip uploaded on Saturday shows the croc, affectionately named Snapper Jr, floating towards swimmers at Kewarra Beach before heading back to deeper waters.
Children stung by 'irukandji' in Qld
Two children have been stung by suspected irukandji jellyfish within hours of each other in Queensland.
A 10-year-old girl was stung at Cairn's Trinity Beach around 12.30pm on Wednesday, two-and-a-half hours before a 12-year-old boy was taken to Hamilton Island medical centre with a sting to his upper left thigh.
A Queensland Ambulance Service spokeswoman said the boy began developing symptoms around half an hour after leaving water off the island, which is a popular Whitsundays tourism destination.
The incidents come after two people suffered suspected stings in other parts of Cairns on Tuesday, prompting beach closures.
A 58-year-old man was stung by an unknown variety at Stratford but didn't require hospitalisation, while a 46-year-old woman thankfully recovered after what was initially feared to be an irukandji sting at Clifton Beach.
Cairns Hospital also treated a three-year-old girl before discharging her later in the day.
Kewarra Beach, also in Cairns, was closed after an irukandji was found in stinger nets, a Queensland Surf Lifesaving spokeswoman told AAP.
