Spring has sprung at Flour Cask Bay Sanctuary
September 11th, 2008 by MarkAfter a few dry years and a winter with not as much rain as we could use, spring is shaping up to be a bumper crop of colourful blossoms. A myriad of bright yellows, pinks, purples, reds, blues and whites are scattered across the landscape. Birds are preparing to nest and a range of migratory waders are making the best of full lakes and lagoons. Echidnas are every where and Goannas will be out from their winter slumber soon. What a spectacular time to visit.
