Rain, a Tiger Snake and Night Herons
The first go I had at this blog was around for a day. Then I tried to add labels using the iPad Blogger App. This resulted in me deleting the blog - BUGGER! As usual with 'apps' it has far worse user friendliness that the 'applications' in Windows. The first large brickbat to Apple.
I shall try to summarise the main points here.
Rainfall was about variation in falls over a short distance. In one storm we got 13mm, a friend about 5km away got 27mm and a third property scored 40. The next day we got 19mm (in 30 minutes or less) and our friend got 3mm. Can someone forecast this stuff?
Tiger Snake: I saw this on Whiskers Creek Rd. I didn't go closer - especially since it took a good look at me before moving off!
That was the first Tiger Snake I had seen up this way. Cast a pebble at the corvids: two days later we found another - much smaller and flatter, and definitely less alive - on Widgiewa Rd. Its a plague!!!
I was going out on Tuesday to show our friend the Nankeen Night Heron. In the event we found 5 of them. Here are two.
Note the plumes on the lower one. I now reckon they are breeding in there, but will have to keep an eye out for the juveniles.
