Day3
Wandered about today. Washed the car. Went to Hasties Swamp which is a
wildlife (bird) reserve and boasts a two story bird hide.
Thought we'd see how much the Curtain fig tree has grown in the 10 years since we last saw it, but hey, we couldn't tell!
We had a look at the
falls at Malanda and had lunch in a tiny bakery. Went to Lake Eacham where we
were surprised to see two divers all rigged up with re-breathers, two spare air
bottles and looking like the Michelin man. They said they would get 50m but the
vis is rubbish, it’s freezing and there’s nothing to see. Can only assume they
were training for the time when they’d have to go down looking for something or
someone. Lake Barrine hasn’t changed one bit, tried snapping a Ulysses
butterflies and some yellow bird.
We came back at that point and I went and filled up the car and went for
a swim in the public pool, which may have been heated but which was pretty
cool.
I've been a bit lazy today, not many snaps, put a few more under the Atherton heading.
