Sunday 15th September 2019. 1405 – 1510

Bright sunny day. Light SE breeze. Track dry.

Set off with Thomas after lunch and found a fast moving Platypus at Snodgrass’s Pool and close by a Rufous Shrike-Thrush was busy in the waterside bushes. Only one Saw-shelled Turtle occupying the Log Jam today. A Platypus followed me up the southern side of the promontory. He concealed himself under the roots at the bend but emerged at Platy’s Pool in time to put on a virtuoso performance for a group of visitors, surfacing almost at their feet. He continued on up the creek and I suspect that it was he that I saw again at Picnic Peninsula. The solitary Green Ringtail Possum was ready to receive guests in the Overhanging Bushes. I was quite surprised when, of a group of half a dozen visitors offered the chance to meet her, only one older lady accepted. She was delighted by the experience.
