Out n about again, spur of the moment trip, fitted a new knobby front tyre to my motorcycle so had to go for a long ride to test it out.
This time to Sundown National Park...via as many dirt back roads as I could find.
7hours later...
Arrived just before dusk, quick look around to get the lie of the land, before setting up in the dying light, under headlamp.
Remote & usually bone dry, recent rain changed that.
Biggest freshwater mussels I've found so far.
The Bone yard....I'm guessing an owl or bird of prey eats it's victims here.
Edible but invasive Prickly Pear...lots o' seeds, very little pulp, tastes a bit like watermelon & watch out for their fine tiny spikes !
It was hot work hopping & scrambling up a small side creek, so I made time for a cooling wilderness jacuzzi...I didn't want to get out.
