Wildlife Report
Arrived at Allumbah Pocket full of anticipation and for the first time in ages was disappointed by a complete absence of Possums.
While crossing Lloyd’s Bridge however I photographed a Varied Triller and a male Fairy Gerygone who was enjoying a late lunch.
A pair of Pacific Emerald Doves were pecking among the pebbles at The Other Side
On the Rocks in front of the Memorial Bench a Saw-shelled Turtle was taking the air. A Row of similar Turtles were occupying the fallen log at Snodgrass’s Pool.
An Eastern Water Dragon was on the rocks on the other side of the track.
More Turtles and a Water Dragon were on the concrete slab at The Log Jam but took to the water before I could lift my camera.
The same Platypus was at almost the same spot along Stringers Stretch and although quite cooperative was not providing the same level of entertainment as on the previous two days.
The Golden Orb Weaver Spider was in the same spot near the Highway Bridge.
A White-headed Pigeon was photographed along the lane to Bunya Street.
You can’t have diamonds every day but I still got some good photos!
