Wildlife in and around Canberra




On safari!

After the rain: Black Mountain orchids






A selection of ground orchids, and a sundew...
(I plan to do better next year once I've mastered the lenses!)

Spring morning on Black Mountain


Blink, and they are gone...
Grey ghosts, or was it a log???

Well, it is Floriade, after all!


I took refuge in a close up amidst an overabundance of colour.

sunset storm clouds


Sometimes I just have to stop.
This was one of those times...

over the hills and far away...


This morning I set out to explore Lake George.
Just over the hill suspended in a different time and place...
Deep fog made things ambiguous!

HEading down to Coppin's Crossing


Dawn on the back road to Woden...
(Going to work again)
Bemused by pastel pink, blue and green.
Last year these slopes had black Angus yearlings grazing..
but I think this land is now going to become another housing development
