Mainly seasonal stuff

 Of course with that title, my first two snaps are not seasonal: sunrises occur daily and colourful ones at any season!  The first view is from the deck looking North (as proven by Mt Imlay).

The second was from the Street, with a good bit more East in the orientation.

My main outing for the day was to the Waste Water Treatment Plant (aka poo pits) to hopefully add a couple of missing species to the monthly list.  I walked in from the Tip, seeing some nice bush along the way.  Acacia longifolia is getting its act well together.

A less flamboyant wattle is Acacia myrtifolia.

As always Spyridium parvifolium stands out in the bush because of the white, dusty-looking, leaves (hence the vernacular name "Dusty Miller").  The flowers are tiny and not all all obvious unless really looking closely.

Epacris impressa is beginning to impress.

Hardenbergia violacea is crawling up in most places.

Australian Shelduck were in the usual numbers (I think at least 10) on the ponds.  This group of 4 appeared to be in a mating display.

At times both the males adopted this position.  From reading the accounts in HANZAB for several Shelduck species this appears to be a response by the male to incitement by a female.

I noticed this Black-fronted Dotterel in a cleared area.  I subsequently noted 3 others in a gravelled area, which would appear to offer nest site potential.  As none of them did a distraction display I assume they haven't yet laid their eggs.

Some could define a bird as "a thing with wings" in which case a passing Roulette could fit the bill.  It did one lap of the town then one of the pits before heading back in the general direction of Sale.
