Peter Murrell Reserve

Peter Murrell Reserve

As this reserve is recently re opened Ramblers have been to enjoy a walk and look for "live things"




Plenty of Currawongs about


My trusty accomplice on Coffee Creek Trail


A couple more suited to the Fungi collection



Lots of life in the trees, here seen behind some "live wires"


Plenty of these about too, the cycle of life?


Jay and Wayne walked the reserve and found things of interest










Sylvia met some ducks

"Looks a bit deep"


Here goes


Waiting for dinner


Tom and Donna went to the Conservation Park at Judbury. 
Parked the car at Jud's Creek crossing, just within the boundary and walked to the beginning of the Billy Brown's Falls Track. It was 290m in altitude over 4km one way-coming down was a lot easier 


This track was a bit too wet and slippery


"There was once a way through the woods". Walter de la Mere 


There were some huge trees after logging many years ago


Lynne also found a "live wire"

Walks and works

Walks and works

Sue and Gary walked along the Pipeline Track and found lots of water works.









and a fungus!



I went to explore the new pedestrian bridge







   Jay and Wayne walked at the Wetlands and Whitewater Creek 
(and yes we had water fall on us)












Jo took a walkabout in Franklin Square for these great water works.





Stewart sent these mega structures from previous explorations 


and a bridge 



Looks like Sylv has been to Snug River.





Bob sent a photo of the Shot Tower and when he was walking on Nutgrove Beach he took photos of Tasman Bridge and Wrest Point.






Donna and Tom walked  the  Boronia  Hill Track and found lots of beautiful sights, and even some 'works'

Starting from Auburn Road 


View over Kingston and towards Brown's Beach


Waterworks (the only one without graffiti)


Guide to native orchids, the flying duck is so well named. We must plan a walk here in orchid season.



Sculptural tree roots


If in doubt, consult a map
