Early morning on the Murray River 🌅— caught this majestic Australian Pelican enjoying its breakfast along the riverbank at Murray Bridge.
With one of the largest bills of any bird in the world, the Australian Pelican gracefully scoops up fish with effortless precision. A quiet moment in nature, full of charm and character.

Murray Bridge, South Australia, is a vibrant regional city nestled along the scenic Murray River, just 78 km east of Adelaide (hour and half from the city). Rich in history, it was once known as Mobilong and Edwards Crossing before adopting its current name in 1924, inspired by the iconic bridge spanning the river. Traditionally called Pomberuk by the Ngarrindjeri people, the city has evolved into a bustling hub of agriculture, tourism, and community spirit.

Today, Murray Bridge is renowned for its stunning riverfront, family-friendly parks like Sturt Reserve, and attractions such as the Monarto Safari Park and the Murray Bridge Regional Gallery. The city has recently been recognized as one of Australia’s top travel destinations for 2025, thanks to its unique charm and vibrant community.

Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or a taste of local culture, Murray Bridge offers a welcoming escape with something for everyone — from scenic riverfront views and water sports on the Murray River to charming local markets and wildlife encounters.

Scouting, weeks of planning with PhotoPills, and enduring freezing nights — all for that to get the Milky Way shot. In South Australia, the best time to capture the galactic core is from March to September, with peak visibility between May and July. Every cold, starry night is worth it. ✨
