Feathers and fins.

Hi lovelies

We did not do too much for the past two days, but what we did do was so exciting.

There were a number of swans visiting the lake over the last few days, and they look so graceful and peaceful.

There are also a number of pelicans at the park, and they are very friendly.

 

Robbie and I did go off fishing yesterday morning.  He caught a few rock cod, 

but this one with the bow tie was pretty cool.  

He was a little worried about if the eel would bite or not.

While he was fishing, we saw a whale breach a couple of times just in front of us.  Alas we did not have cameras on hand to take a photo of it.

We went back up to the Warden Head Lighthouse and did see a couple of others slowly making their way up the coast.

Robbie did manage to catch a legal size fish yesterday back at the lake.

I am not at all certain he caught it as much as it caught itself.  He throws the lines in, puts the rods in the holders on the jetty and comes and sits at back at the van. 

This morning we were heading to Crampton Island, which is only accessible at low tide.  When we arrived, the tide was still a little to high for us to cross, and while we were waiting a local came and let us know that due to the recent rough weather the channel was currently chest high at low tide.  So we decided it was probably not for us. 😊

We headed off to replace my phone, which had a smashed screen.  This has taken all day, and while I have a phone, we are still getting all the apps reloaded.

While waiting we headed back to the lighthouse and were again blessed with some whales who were playing.  It was so exciting.  

This time we had our cameras and the binoculars that I received for Mother’s Day. 

The whales were not quite as close, and Robbie did a great job at getting video and some still shots for us.   
 

They are so beautiful to see.

Please click here if you would like to see a video he has put together.

From there we stopped at the entrance to our park for the bird feeding. 

This young man keeps visitors entertained until feed time. 

 I am not sure why he likes trying to stand on his head.

There were hundreds of birds sitting in the trees waiting for feed time. 

For some reason today they decided not to come down out of the trees to take the feed from our hands.  A large group of galahs did decided to attack the seed that was spread by the park workers.

All for tonight lovelies.  We are heading back to trying to get my new phone to work. ☹

Stay safe and keep enjoying life.

Love us.
