Post

Thomas decided to accompany me this morning.
The Golden Orb-weaver spider was still hanging out in front of the Picnic Shelter at Allumbah Pocket.
While crossing the Suspension Bridge, observed a large Eastern Water Dragon on the bank but with the end of his tail still in the water. He was almost underneath the bridge but managed a couple of photographs.
White Spot the Green Ringtail Possum still absent but her mate was in the trees at Snodgrass’s Pool and appeared to be cleaning his right front foot so he was caught with his mouth open!
Nothing seen then until the Highway Bridge where the wing of a Bat was particularly obvious. The photo was not unfortunately as good as yesterdays.
Nothing to be seen in the Viewing Pool or Paddock but the Bush Stone-curlews were still looking after their favourite spot.
Along Bunya Street the pair of Masked Lapwings were still busy guarding their offspring.
