Gus the Goanna (annoying the birds)

He went straight up the nearest tree when Rick arrived with the camera

Gertrude the Goanna (different colours!) - very interested in the BBQ remains

She can certainly "smell" something interesting

Native bees having a feed.

We don't know what the flowers are, but the native bees just love them!

And here's our little camp spot

THE FUNGUS COLLECTION

  The weird device on some of the fungi is a van "bubble" level - just for size comparison.          _IGP7501 _IGP7504 _IGP7508

Lazy, relaxing morning

And now for the nose results 

2 days after surgery to remove a large BCC from the tip of my nose - 28 stitches to put it back together again afterwards

3 weeks after surgery the results are just amazing.  The doctors and staff at The Skin and Cancer Foundation at Westmead in Sydney were just fantastic.  I can highly recommend the expertise and helpfulness, but have no intention of repeating the procedure ever again.
