Denmark Escape.

Well it was time for a break !
So we loaded up T and T and headed South.
Lake Towerrinning was the first stop.
Alison and I did a quick reccie and saw this
Gorgeous Dude.


Deborah and Anthony were our travel companions.
So Debs and I took off looking for subjects !
Being a working farm the Sheep were about.


We went up to the Top of the Lake and sure enough
Swans , Spoonbills , Pelicans , Ducks and more .


Whotchu Looking at Willis ?


But the promised rain was on the way !!!!


So what else do you do ?
Sit on the edge of the Lake with a red 
and watch the Sun go down !


The photographers amoungst us were up at Sparrows !


To catch the rising Sun.


We stopped at Kojonup for a coffee.
What a great way to display Beautiful's Feathers !


From there to Denmark.
The Sun came out so we went to Albany...as you do !
The Natural Bridge.

Then out to The Gap 
With it's new Lookout...
Wow !
Double click if you want to read .


Now that was as far as Anthony would go !


Looking straight down.


Alison was "very brave"
Terrified but Brave !


I just loved looking straight down at the water !
Clearly photographers are braver than their partners !


Out to the Old Leper Colony , and we got a look 
at the old ship we had seen from the other side of 
Princess Charlotte Harbour.


Then back to the town for F and C's for a late lunch.
We had seen a picture of this at 
West Cape Howe Winery.


So we went to find it !


The photographers had a ball !


We needed to go to 
The Lake House !!!


" The Love Birds "


And this in a Farm down the road .
Not quite a Barn Find !
In Original Condition !!


Because I liked it ....


Then this...
A little Red Eared Firetailed Finch .


A stunning Fungus .


Simply because !


You don't see many of those around here !
Outside Old Kent River Winery.
A Bloody Big Blue Marron .


Then D and A and I went Green Pool 
then onto Elephant Rock !


A lovely spot .


A gorgeous Pied Oyster Catcher patrolling .


Shame the weather was a bit ordinary , 
it would've been stunning if the sky was blue .


Another day we headed to
Shelly Beach.
The road in was something I wanted to photograph
many times.....So I did !


Up on the Lookout.


The Creek was flowing .


On the last morning......
The Sparrows were a calling !


And the Pelicans were a Cruising !
Stairway to the Sun...
Denmark Style
Not bad Huh !


These are a bit out of order ...


But the only one who'll care is me !


This is the mouth of the inlet at Ocean Beach ,
flowing beautifully .


Being in the right place at the right time .
Caspian Tern and Red Capped Plovers
I'm told !


And the Waves were Spectacular !


Now where are we going next and when ?
