Cape wildlife in winter

As well as working on the house over winter, we managed to get out and about and see some wildlife and stuff.


There were angry skies and seas, as the photo of Kilcunda shows.

 
On one of our trips to Venus Bay we saw a young Grey Goshawk, see above. It allowed us to get quite close. It was by the boat ramp, a favourite spot for raptors, as theres lots of fish and stuff to tuck into. Beautiful bird.
 
 
 
And the roos were out, of course. We have been in Australia on and off for 18 years and the thrill of seeing roos in the wild hasn't worn off. I don't think it will. The shot above is taken from the road to the boat ramp, but we can get closer to them a bit further towards stage 5..
