There have been some lovely pastels at dusk lately. This wetlands scene is part of Ewen Maddock Dam, located along Steve Irwin Way on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland.

Near Wyndham, and still proximal to Kununurra, is a world-renowned birding area known as Marlgu Billabong – part of Parry Lagoons Nature Reserve. Dusk and dawn are the best times to visit and observe the varied avifauna, yet anytime is a good time to be outdoors 🙂
The scenery as you enter Parry Lagoons Nature Reserve…
