Lost In The Tall Grass

FF
Still heaps of tall grass behind Buffalo Creek. Walking was very time consuming as I had to backtrack several times or just use dead reckoning, glad I took plenty of water. I remember seeing lots of hawking insectivores in the open fields between the woodland and the paperbarks last year but it must happen later because it was very quite this morning.

On the way there, near one of the run-off paperbark avenues, quite a few birds and some butterflies were busy having breakfast and didn’t seem to mind me stumbling over the grass tuffs.

Still one or two Woolybutts in bloom and it looks like the Darwin Stingy Barks are budding up.
