A walking trail in a forested area - 'Harvey's Return Walk'; one can easily lost the way out if wanders off track!
Scenic view of the shores along the trail.
We passed this landing point for supplies to the light house before roads were built.
Horses pulled wagons up these steep slopes.
These grass trees fascinates me.
So is termite mound, it's design is a nature's wonder. How they regulate the internal environment and provide areas for fungus cultivation to feed its youngs! How do they pass on such 'knowledge' without documentation?
There are many scenic coasts, we were hopeful to spot whales off shore each time.
Weather was windy with light drizzle at times.
But not enough to hide these beautiful sea cliffs.
We sat out here longer to try our luck again, scanning the ocean surface with binoculars.
But it was unrewarding, so I content with photo of this magpie.
A visit to the light house for a change.
Then onward to Casurina Islet with a seal colony.. this long board walk zig zag down to look out points. The rock islet out there is populated with seals, a little too far for close encounters.
There were many seals resting on the rocks.. you may spot them resting on rocks at far end. They look clumsy on land, how they climb that high up?
Pretty well camouflage with the rocks even viewed at close range.
More board walk leading down!
Below this land arch has many seals too.
Mother and calf having a nap. What a cute sight!
There are few hundred seals around at least.. good visit to wrap up the day.
