Tuesday 11^th July

SHE SAID:

Geoff joined me for a fruitless drive to Condingup, but the scenery made up for the lack of orchids.

Geoff found a new “sweet spot” out at Coolinup, with loads of Spiders coming, also Sun & Mignonette leaves, & flowering Brittle Snails. I hope some of the Spiders are out before we leave!

Back at the house it was nice to open up & enjoy the warm afternoon. It got to 21C, on a rare sunny day here!

Little Wharton Bay
Wharton Beach

Wispy Sunset

HE SAID:

With limited orchids found the highlight for me was seeing the spray from a few unknown mammals far off in the sea off Little Wharton Beach. I couldn't tell if the half-dozen or so spouts I saw were from whales, dolphins, or something else. And, rather disappointingly, by the time Varena came to a good observation point they were seen no more. So, therefore unverified, and unidentified!
