A fisherman has captured the unusual moment a giant three metre crocodile climbed up a tree.
Jim Churchley was fishing on the Corroboree Billabong in Darwin on February 8 when he spotted the crocodile scaling a tree trunk.
The saltwater croc had come out of the water and made its way up the tree.

Mr Churchley is no stranger to saltwater crocs but was stumped by his latest encounter. I m on the water all the time and see crocs all the time, but this was just unusual. I ve never seen one up a tree like that, he told NT News.

Will someone please tell Boris Johnson that hardly anyone uses a roadmap any more (Tory MPs tell Johnson to commit to lifting Covid restrictions by end of April, 13 February). Surely it would be better to say he is going to satnav us out of lockdown, then we would know what he means.
Plans for signage outside the proposed sandwich shop. Inset: Graham Webb PLANS to create a drive-thru Subway sandwich shop at an out-of-town shopping centre have been described as another blow for Clacton town centre. Britton Developments has applied to Tendring Council for change of use to turn the unit, at Brook Retail Park, to convert it into a sandwich shop and drive-thru restaurant. The former Carphone Warehouse closed in April last year after the company decided to close all of its standalone retail units across the country. Graham Webb, chairman of Clacton Town Partnership, said it comes following separate plans for a drive-thru Costa Coffee at neighbouring Brook Park West.
How the shop could look and Clacton Town Partnership s Graham Webb (top right) BLUEPRINTS have been submitted for a new drive-thru Costa Coffee at a retail park in Clacton. Britton Developments has submitted plans to build the 1,800sq ft unit on farmland next to the Smugglers Cove Inn at Brook Park West, off the A133. The plans include 33 parking spaces and an associated access road, opposite the retail park’s Lidl supermarket. Permission was granted for two drive-thru cafes or restaurants, one of which is occupied by McDonald’s, when permission was granted for the retail park in 2017. But new plans have been submitted specially to fit the requirements of Costa Coffee.
