Incredable Life

I thought I would start my blog again, so I could share and record things that I like, and things I see.

Straight up an amazing thing.

I looked out the window as I was typing. My border collie was intent on something in the grass. She storks, rabbits but she hadn’t moved for some time, it has been warm and it dawned on me that it could be a snake. I trained her that she is not to go near lizards or snakes.

I crept down the garden and thought she was watching a large tiger snake but something was not quite right.

Hopefully we will have lots more Blue Toungs in our garden soon

It has been two years

I have been away from my blog for two years - where has that time gone.
I still live beside my wetlands and to date nothing has changed.
Actually that is not true.
The knackery, which is situated at the western end of the area that I am concerned with and in the middle of the full stretch of wetland, has put in an application for a Biodiversity plant, this may work in our favour. It has bought more public attention.
There is also a formed walking path along the northern side of the river, even though this is bringing more people into the area, which doesn't please me, again it may help in the long run.

This photo shows the land under subdivision plans. The Wetlands, along the river banks and between the front and far hill. The walking path can be seen to the right of the river. A large sand mine in the sand dunes far left, should also be of environmental concern.
