Kaurna Wetlands Park

This morning Maryann and I took our regular walk around "our" wetlands. It has been drying out quickly, but a few heavy showers yesterday have really filled it up again. Passing one partly hidden pool, we spotted some Australian White Ibis and Royal Spoonbills. These are the first Spoonbills I have seen here this summer.

  1. Wow, I just looked up where the park is. I lived in Salisbury North for a couple of months in June of 1979...
