I’m probably thanking my lucky stars today as I was waltzing along when I saw a flower that I wanted to snap. I heard a very load crack and thump nearby. it was a huge trunk and everything above it that fell across the very path I was taking 30m around the corner!

Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby (Petrogale xanthopus)

The Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby is one of the most brightly coloured of all Australian mammals and is readily identified by its colouring and patterning. It has a thick, grey-coloured coat with a dark mid-dorsal stripe and white cheek, flank and hip stripes. Its chest and belly are light-coloured and its limbs and ears are a rich golden colour. The tail is long, cylindrical, blunt ended, and characteristically banded dark brown and golden-brown. 

It is a member of the macropod family (the marsupial family that includes the kangaroos, wallabies, tree-kangaroos, and wallaroos).

Conservation status in NSW: Endangered
Commonwealth status: Vulnerable

If I zoom in even further you can see a nearby abandoned open cut gold mine which is β€˜just the other side’ of the agricultural zone at Bullfinch.

I was wondering why the tarmac I drove on yesterday was so wide and well made. There’s the answer!

Well I just couldn’t stop myself. A whimsical detour to Baladjie Nature Reserve which contains one of our typical granite outcrops which creat their own ecosystem.

Bummer! My favourite back track to Perth is closed. Booo…
I will have to go the long way and my followers don’t get to see more of special WA not so well known.

I know I’m in WA proper at Norseman. Mining vehicles and machinery abound.

Feeling strangely sad about this trip ending soon. Great to be back on home turf with endless woodlands and granite outcrops.

Sorry about the lack of detail but I took advantage of a tail wind and my extra 21/2 hrs I got back crossing the border.

Closing the loop.
