What is in the title!
A neighbour was able to show me a Bassian Thrush i his yard, ending some months of searching for a sighting of this species.
A crescent moon.
Female Scarlet Robin seen on a drive around the are which spotted 41 species in an hour!
Two Cattle Egrets (ibid)
The Nauta Tce Emu, sighted for the first time in several months.
A comfortable Pelican.
A pleasant sunset, taken on my iPad through a double-glazed window.
An Azure Kingfisher takes flight.
Later on 24th we walked the Betka Loop. At Point Difficult we saw, but could not photograph, at least 6 Whales swimming past, about halfway to the horizon. I did get a snap of a Sooty Oystercatcher on the rocks below.
On the 25th I went to Geology Point to see if there were more whales around. There were not - or if they were they were staying out of view. However a search for Southern Emuwren delivered the goods.
On the afternoon of 25 June we walked the Heathland track. We saw another 3 Emuwrens as we did so: adjacent to the seat in the heath. Earlier we had seen an Echidna near the bridge on the Chip Track ...
... and several specimens of
Dillwynnia sericea. As we also saw blossom on
Hakea and
Allocasuarina there are signs that Winter will end (if a day with a maximum of 19.4C can be called Winter!)
