Outing Report - Black Rock Scrub, 18 September 2021

Magnificent views on the way to Black Rock Scrub
(2 pics have been made into a collage so the join is a bit wonky) 

A good turn out of members and visitors took to their 4WDs to climb the hills to Black Rock Scrub. What views there were on the way up.

Carpet Python (Morelia spilota)

Once we arrived it was time for morning tea and we were joined by a sparkling Carpet Python, his new skin shining in the sun.

The beautiful vine scrub

The lure of the scrub could not be ignored and it wasn't long before we were wandering through this patch of virgin vine scrub. As usual, the Natters scattered depending on their interests - photography, botany, birdwatching, searching for insects,

or just plain rambling in the bush.
