Whale Of A Time - Photos

As requested, here are some ’stills’ of the whales and pelicans. Most, if not all of these were taken by my wife, as I was busy with the camcorder.
When I place photos directly into a post like this, I try to make them a little more suitable for web viewing, by lowering the quality and [...]

The Australian Brown Snake

Knowing that you all love photographs, here’s yet another one I nearly forgot to upload. It was taken 3-4 weeks ago, on the road just outside Lock.

As the title says, it’s an Australian Brown Snake (I think), and it is very early in the season to be seeing them out on the road, which is [...]

1) Laughing Kookaburra
Australia is reknowned for its [...]

Spies In The Neighbourhood?

My wife, a 007 agent*, took this shot a couple of days ago. Are there foreign spies in Port Lincoln? Is this submarine carrying nuclear warheads?
*A joke. My wife is not a 007 agent (as far as I am aware).
