Thursday 11th July 0845- 0950

No rain in past 24 hrs. Cloudy with glimpses of sun and occasional light drizzle. Path started to dry out. Several couples on walk today but only one child in a large stroller about to attempt the steps down to walk beneath the road bridge. Mum was directed to the back way in on the other side of the road!

3 platypus were seen but not as cooperative as over the past few days and one was only a fleeting glimpse. The light was not as good. Did manage a few pics which are shown below.
