Friday 27th September 2019. 1030 – 1130

Overcast. Several light showers during walk. Light breeze from south. Walk slightly damp.

Full team out but not expecting much in view of weather. A Bush Stone-curlew was looking anxious along Bunya Street where the garden was receiving a tidy up. Not warm enough for Water Dragons or Turtles this morning. At the downstream side of the Log Jam Peninsula a Platypus was amusing a group of Mums and children, bobbing up and down and completely indifferent to his audience. He eventually moved round the corner towards the Jam and came so close to me that the camera was unable to focus. Not helped by constant movement and poor light but I managed to get a couple of pics. No sign of any possums. Try again tomorrow!

Bush Stone-curlew. Burhinus grallarius

Very worried as the gardener cleared up rubbish on his patch.

Platypus. Ornithorhynchus anatinus

Very busy Platypus.
Difficult to focus when Platypus is trying to swim down the lens!
