    Then, in the middle of the marsh were two Kangaroos... not sure if these are Western Grey or some other name.

    On the run

    We made our way across the headland to a car park where the Lights Beach Trail started. We wandered around the area first finding a Yellow-billed Spoonbill, who didn't seem to want to say hello to us!!

    Another mess-up

    I didn't do too well that day.... messed up a few pictures, of Lifers too. I was rather engrossed in everything else, but became aware of two gulls flying overhead. I knew immediately they were different, so followed them down to the water... the only option there was Pacific Gull, my next...

    Photo-bomber

    I wasn't actually trying to take a picture of the Australian Pelican, it photo-bombed my attempt to take a picture of a bush fire. Glad we were quite a way away from it, with some water in between!

    Ever hopeful?

    No sooner had I sat down to give my back a rest an Australian Raven landed on the rail. Guess he was hoping for some food LOL. He was out of luck though, as it was all in the car!!!! Trouble is, he really does have a bit of an evil eye, doesn't he?

    Hanging out

    We'd now arrived at the cliffs above Ocean Beach (quite high) and we'd stopped at a lookout point. On the beach, far below was a group of Caspian Terns. It was a bit breezy up there and I think the combination of distance and wind messed up my efforts to focus properly.

    Oh do go away!!!

    We were now working our way towards Ocean Beach, stopping wherever we could and I couldn't resist taking this picture as it was such a nice setting. And I do like Pied Oystercatchers. Think I'll need to find a colourful bird for you tomorrow, as I seem to have shown you so many black and white...

    In the same area as the oystercatcher was an Australian Pied Cormorant swimming around. That yellow wattle round the eye really stands out, doesn't it.

    A bit further along the inlet, in a sheltered part, was a Pied Oystercatcher. Found some nice shade for himself, didn't he.

    Odd one out

    After a rather nice lunch at a cafe in the centre of the small town, we set off from Denmark following the coastline of Wilson's Inlet. We saw many birds, but some not in a good position to photograph, unlike this group of Silver Gulls. Can you see the odd one out?

    Crossing continents?

    After I got the mud off my shoes, we followed on round Wilson's Inlet and then I saw signs to Denmark!!! Where are they taking me? Rather a nice town but we skirted it to go down to the river, getting a super close view of an Australian Pelican floating about in sparkling water!

    B&W makes Black and white

    Alex spotted a Pied Stilt, AKA White-headed Stilt and Australian Stilt beside an island back a little way over to our right and suggested I try and get a bit closer and hide behind a bush to get a picture. Think he thought it was April 1! I set off confidently, using my best field craft, but...

    After breakfast we set off in the other direction up the coast. First stop was down to Morley Beach. At first sight it looked devoid of birds, but then you got your eye in and out there were loads and loads of birds *a bit distant) but seemed to be raft after raft of Black Swans... here's a few...

    Quite obvious

    Back views can sometimes be a bit confusing, but there can be absolutely no doubt what this bird is. That bill is diagnostic, isn't it. Black mark to anyone who can't nail the ID. No prize if you can;) Couldn't resist holding on to this one for Saturday Fun

    Trying it's best

    We'd now driven round by Lights Beach and got back to Denmark; then, of course, went back to the cafe for refreshments (a nice place that). When we came out though, we were faced with this! The smoke from the bushfire. Really quite scary as it seemed to be coming from the direction of the route...

    Loafers

    The other side of the wet area where the egret was, were two Kangaroos having an afternoon siesta, though why out in the full sun, I don't know LOL These were the first I'd seen in Western Australia, so most likely these are Western Grey, which I'd not seen before of course.
