Monday 25th February

We began the day by driving to Koombana Bay where we hoped to see dolphins but after an hour, no luck. We enjoyed hot sunshine and a walk along the beach instead.





 

Later we visited the Bunbury Regional Art Gallery which was originally a convent. We were very impressed by the artwork displayed inside which was for the annual art competition.

We drove inland to Harvey where we spent some time in the heritage gardens that border the Harvey River, named after John Harvey, a naval captain.

We returned via Cathedral Drive and passed about a dozen kangaroos eating and relaxing in the fields by the side of the road.

We stopped at Australind for a walk out along the estuary jetty which was 1.5 km there and back.

About half-way along we had a good view of many different types of birds on an island just off the jetty.

This heron kept pace with us as we walked towards the far end.

We relaxed on the seats provided before walking back.
