Over this way there are lots of lakes with reasonable amount of water that I suspect is kept topped up. This ensures a good population of wildlife for the enjoyment of visitors.
This morning there was quite a few birds and some water dragons to keep us interested as we walked the couple of kilometers around the lake. There were a pair of swans keeping watch on their 3 cygnets and chasing any other birds that got too close.
Towards the north end was a fair group of magpie geese relaxing in the cool morning. Lots of brown honeyeaters were on hand singing to us as we walked past. Dozens of turtles swam over in the hope of food. We don't feed them but obviously people do.
This area is a nice spot for a morning walk.Read more
