On our way out to The Blowhole today, we saw these emus at the side of the road.
Further along, we saw more salt production....Rio Tinto Dampier Salt mines.
Towards the top of several telegraph poles, were old wheel rims attached to them,
and birds had built nests in them.
This is one of the blow-holes in action....they actually went up a fair bit higher than this.
It's really rugged coastline here....the water a beautiful deep blue,
and the rocks you walk over to get a closer look are very rugged.
While we were watching the blow-hole, a couple of whales came past....they were amazing, they came right out of the water, and were hanging around for ages.
The wildflowers are beautiful over here, we've seen many different ones already.
Dave had a fish off the beach while we were out there, but didn't have any luck....but what a spot!!
This is One Mile Jetty. We started walking out along it late this afternoon. It was quite breezy, and very rough, so I went back to the car, and Dave walked the whole distance. When he got to the end, there were people fishing. One bloke had cought a huge fish.
Dave photographed this cute little bird this afternoon. It's really cute and quite friendly. We saw some the same the other day up at Onslow, they were flying down and looking at us through the windscreen when we stopped the car to look at something. I don't know what sort it is, we'll have to look it up in the bird book when we get home.
