No rain overnight. Overcast with brief sunny periods. Cool SW breeze. Track dry

An early start his morning to fit in with family activities. Both canine rangers in attendance. Seemed a quiet day initially with first sighting a Freshwater Snake just before the Log Jam where there was a solitary Saw-shelled Turtle in attendance. A single Green Ringtail Possum was roosting in the Overhanging Bush formerly occupied by Mum and joey and I suspect that this was Mum. She was wide awake and checking me out as usual. A Bush Stone-curlew was in a delightful spot next to a barbed wire entanglement close to the walk entrance at Highway Bridge. The only Platypus seen by me was a distant sighting from the Viewing Platform but I received reports of 3 other sightings from visitors.
