Broome, Gantheaume Point, rocks

























I got so carried away with the natural art works in the rocks at Gantheaume Point that I had troubles stopping making photos. If I could I had measured the whole rock formation and photographed every single centimeter of it. So beautiful are the vibrant reds, oranges, yellows and everything in between.

Broome, Gantheaume Point, seaweeds

First I thought it was some kind of fish or sea creatures eggs, but then it looks more like a plant... or is it slightly different?

Is it one creature or is it a stone covered in a lot of little creatures? Alive like animals or like plants?


And some weird other things, especially this blue stuff. A chemical colour of light blue was attached to several spots on the rocks at low tide.

Wildflower season WA









Two weeks ago we went for a weekend camping up  north to see the wildflowes. We drove up north via Bindoon and took then the Bindoon-Moora Road to Moora. The landscape was beautiful green and some of the fields were dotted with yellow flowers. But only on the way from Moora to Badgingarra we spotted a lot of different flowers and parts dotted with Everlastings. And in Leseur National Park were heaps of  bright red Kangaroo paws.

End of winter flies


It's the last month of winter and this pretty little fly was enjoying the arum lilly in our pound.

Ringnecks

Birds at Mundaring Weir

 The birds in the Mundaring bush are very domesticated, they know that people have food so they are expecting to share. Especially at the cafe area at the Perth Hills Centre.

Wattlebird

We always have heaps of birds in our front yard because of the pond. Ravens, Rainbow lorikeets, Ringnecks, Willy Wagtails and the odd Kookaburra but also very often the Wattlebird. They are awaiting their turn to have a bath most of the time fighting and screaming at each other. Sometimes I have to chase away Egrets who are fishing the goldfish out of the pond.

This Wattlebird was screaming from the tree trying to chase away a flock of fighting lorikeets.
