We had another good walk, this one was through the Tamar River Conservation Area. This is an important wetlands reserve about 15 minutes from our house. The walk comprises a boardwalk over the marsh to Tamar Island.
The boardwalk wanders through the reeds to a paperbark forest where there is a bird blind. We spooked a pair of ducks and their brood on the way. The black geese and their goslings were out, and we also saw a Purple Swamphen.
The estuary environment changes with the tides to reveal the mud bottom. You can see where the birds have walked!
