A BIT OF A SLOW DAY DOWN AT HERDSMAN LAKE
BUT IT DID PROVIDE A LITTLE SURPRISE ! 
FACE TO FACE WITH A TIGER SNAKE!!


                      NEXT ARE A COUPLE OF PICS OF A FAMILY
OF CRESTED GREBE'S
IT WAS FASCINATING TO WATCH THE  FEMALE
LOOKING AFTER THE YOUNG ONES WHILE THE 
                        MALE FETCHED TINY FISH FOR THEM                                                                                 






OK, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE AND 
ALL THE BEST FOR 2012
