Just another average day...........

[Kobione]

Actually got out for a drive today after a very inactive week. Heading for our first 30c day, so we headed off about 10.00am, before it got too warm. Not far from our gate we spotted a nice echidna crossing the road, so stopped to try to get a shot, but he half buried himself under a log. He still looked very clean, sharp and spiky, and it's nice to see them on the move.:

Headed off to Dunnolly, one of our regular visit places, and the day looked nice:

A bit further on spotted something lying on the road - yes, another Beared Dragon:

He was fine, just enjoying the warmth of the road surface, and he did let me get closer:

A few seconds after this he scooted off the road, so he was safe.

Stopped at one of our usual bush spots to give Kelly & Brodie a nice walk. this area is looking a bit dry!:

Got to Dunnolly and visited the bakery, as usual, for our lunch:

Mine was the Pizza Pie at the front, David had the quiche at the rear and guess who got the sausage roll!

Ate in a nice shady spot - the early settlers certainly knew how to provide shade with these trees:

Finished off with a nice coffee and a cappuccino and walnut muffin - shared:

The Kelly & Brodie got theirs - do you think they knew what was coming!!!!!:

We were watched by two nice  Masked Lapwings - could only get this through the windscreen, otherwise they would be gone:

After lunch cruised to another bush spot were we often stop and walk, and as we walked saw what we thought was a stick:

On a closer look it was another Bearded Dragon. This one must have been young as it was only about 6 inches in total length:

Enjoying the sun, as they do:

Stopped on the way home for a couple of minutes to let these sheep go past us, some nice lambs in there, so nice to see:

Finished off our day, at home, about 3.30pm with a nice coffee and a piece of Chelsea Bun:

Nice relaxed day, but interesting to get out and about a bit. The Bearded Dragons are certainly on the move everywhere!

A nice set of images, the lizards are pretty cool....

Thank you all for the nice thought and comments. We really enjoyed the trip, and seeing the lizards was what made it an average sort of day for us. We travelled about 120 klms all up and only passed two cars going the other way once we left Wedderburn and before we got to Dunnolly, and only the farmer with his sheep on our return trip. Once again, for us this is an average sort of day, and one of the reasons - apart from the superb bakery, that we head in that direction and enjoy a  bush walk with Kelly & Brodie.

John they certainly knew what they would get for lunch, the squeaks started as soon as we hit the main street of Dunnolly!!!!

Hopefully we will be a bit more active now, but will still be a bit limited as to 'different' sort of places for photography Will do what we can, and thanks again for the nice comments and the support.
