Monday 28th October 2019. 1330 – 1430

No rain. Overcast with some sunny periods. Light southerly breeze. Track dry.

After a busy morning sorting out minor car problems but fortified by lunch, Thomas and I set out to see what we could find. The Brushtail Possum was again installed at Allumbah Pocket and another was sitting in the fork of the Milky Pine tree at the other end of Lloyds Suspension Bridge. He was initially curled up asleep but following the arrival of a tour group he woke up and inspected us through the fork . Two Eastern Water Dragons were on the rocks opposite Snodgrass’s Pool, the smaller animal having a very attractive skin pattern. Passed a Saw-shelled Turtle breathing from the surface and another 5 sunbaking at the Log Jam. Green Ringtail Possums were roosting in the 5th and 3rd Overhanging Bushes but both were rather sleepy and declined to take to much interest. Met a charming Italian couple who were introduced to both. Once again the Platypus were absent and very few birds were seen apart from a small flock of Magpie Geese in the paddocks behind the Car Park.
