No rain. Scattered cloud with sunny periods. No wind increasing to light breeze. Track dry.
Full team on deck today but even Cody’s prowess could only produce a single Platypus. It was however tracked along both sides of Picnic Peninsula in company with 2 blokes from Germany, but only approached the near bank for a few seconds. The Allumbah Pocket Brushtail Possum was in an even worse mood today , possibly in response to my derogatory remarks of yesterday. The same Eastern Water Dragon was in the same spot opposite the Memorial Bench and 7 Saw Shelled turtles were at the Log Jam. Not nearly as exciting as yesterday but at least we did see a Platypus.
