Queensland
We have crossed the border into Queensland heading to Cunnamulla. It's cattle and sheep grazing country but that is an emu you can see grazing in the field. We saw quite a lot of them along this stretch of road.
Tumbleweed It was August (known to be a windy month of the year) and it was blowing a gale. Tumbleweeds hurtled across our path, pressed forward by the busy wind. While I was photographing the tumbleweed, I braved the icy blast to find a few more tiny flowers and fruits by the roadside.
The Pinnacles, Broken Hill Clear blue sky is very dull! But there is something of interest in the image. These odd shaped mountains appear on the skyline just outside the city. I had planned otherwise for my closing sky today. On a hill outside town there are wonderful sandstone sculptures which I saw the last time I was here. I planned to photograph them against the setting sun but we left our run too late, so you don’t get to see them until our return journey.
Oh wow, an emu in the wild :) such interesting birds
ReplyDeleteWe didn't see any emus up in the Gulf Country. Perhaps they don't like it that far north?
ReplyDeleteI would love to visit Queensland and the Great Barrier!
