Peninsula

Birds on the Peninsula were mostly safe from human disturbance as no-one would dare risk the wrath of the gulls in the colony, but the oycs on the beach were another story. One pair in particular were very close to the boat beaching area and were repeatedly disturbed. Shirley and I did our best to educate beach-goers to her presence, and some kind individual/s built a 'kraal' around her nest to show others that they were to stay away as she was breeding.

Beautiful days.
