6am
20.4 degrees, clear sky. Only a top of 34 predicted for today – yeah.
Off
detecting again. Steve spotted a long grey thing and first thought it was a
snake but it was actually a 3 ½ metre long trail of caterpillars.
Still
cleaning up Australia!! We tried one more spot but didn’t think it would yield.
I said maybe if we try the unlikely spots we will get some. It worked – I got
my first little nuglet though smaller than Steve’s – 0.21 grams – WOW.
Drove
back over the dam wall, Mt Malcolm behind – lots of other birds took flight but
the swans just went a bit further out, all staying in a line. Some locals were
enjoying the water on their paddle boards and just getting wet.
Zoomed
in on our ‘tree’ with the van underneath it.
Finished
off the icecream as Bob and Margaret are heading home tomorrow. We can survive
with our truck fridge and freezer now. Good practice for the desert trip soon.
The
wind picked up and it got quite chilly at 9pm. Only spotted 3 satellites
tonight!!
