2023 Jan 6 Kubirri wawubaja [Mossman R Foxton] tropical whirligig *Macrogyrus* sp., spotted while cooling off swimming . Do not swim there nowadays since the 2023 Dec. 13–18th cyclone and major flooding as large crocodiles have consistently resided there ever since – beware : We have plenty of evidences including photographs including my photographs from Christmas day 2023 Dec 25th .
