Monday 18th to Thursday 21st January 2021.

Weather

Not a lot of rain recorded but almost every day had been characterised by overcast skies and frequent light drizzle. Light winds only in this area. Track damp with some muddy areas. Water level high, steady.

Post

My apologies to my regular followers for the lack of regular posts during this week. The threat of Cyclone Mimi earlier in the week, constant drizzle, activities regarding the Platypus with a plastic ring around its neck and lack of wildlife when I have ventured out has resulted in little to publish.
Here is a collection of the animals that I have seen during my wanders along the Creek for one reason or another.
I will not attempt to write a disjointed narrative but the location of the various images are recorded.
