A Pelican gets a fright

Before coming home, we spent four days at Cullulleraine (between Renmark and Mildura), at a lakeside holiday park. On the first night there was a glorious moon rise – the moon so pale that I failed to notice it until it had almost cleared the trees.

Thanks for looking. Do have a great weekend!

Other Stuff

Cullulleraine, Victoria

We’re back in Victoria now, on the homeward trail. A few days ago, on the road, I was excited to see an emu grazing / picking in a paddock containing nothing but stubble – probably wheat – and a few trees. Then I saw another emu, and next minute there seemed to be tons of them! I drove on, wondering if I should turn around to take photos, or drive back the next day, without the camper, and hope they were still there.

When I spotted the next lot, I pulled over.

I was satisfied with just the two emus, until I noticed activity on a hill to my left. (My horizons are usually a bit inaccurate, as I tend to hold the camera tilted, but this was a hill. I tried to line my vertical guide with the water tank.)
