• Chinchilla Weir

    August 12, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Today was another visit to Chinchilla Weir. Another place that has had improvements made. Again picnic tables beside the water, a new pontoon, gardens and drive-through van sites, some with power. The weir has been overflowing for about the last six months and it looks quite spectacular seeing it like this. The egrets are spread out over the water - around the edges, in the trees and along the overflow - like sentinels.
