What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Menosplorer - final look at Hawkesbury....for now...

Hari Om - regulars will have understood I am having computer and internet difficulties so this writing blog has turned into a "see it and know" pre-scheduled affair!!  Still entertaining and at least it's getting something out to you! Here are a few final glimpses from my trip to the Hawksbury river.

The Bush Turkeys have become as prevalent round the picnic spots as pigeons!

Behind the mangrove swamps grow the paperbark trees.

This shot shows the reason for their name.

  1. The area is not the pretty, compared to other places in Australia but I have always liked this part of Sydney it is still wild and as you have found you don't know what will turn up.

    This is true Merle - there are certainly more picturesque places, but there is a charm and 'feel' to Brooklyn that holds one captive!!

  3. Kinda dangerous for the turkeys to be out roaming around.... I guess that wouldn't be true over there...Duh! That paper bark tree is interesting. I've never seen any thing like it before.
