Samphire Cove


We also visited Samphire Cove to see what was happening here. We didn't much at all in the way of waterbirds, but there were a few old friends to see.

Above is the Magpie Lark in the midsts of his mating demonstration. Flapping his wings and making his call, he hopes for a mating opportunity.

Creery Wetlands


In Mandurah we visited the Creery Wetlands. Along the long board walk across the samphire out ot the water's edge we found a Splendid Fairy Wren. The male is bright blue all over. The Superb Fairy Wren on the east coast is only partially blue and merely superb. Being all blue makes you splendid.
