Taffy's Rock

Ku-ring-gai NP

Super efficient blogging from Allan these days so our bush-walk in Ku-ring-gai NP at the weekend is pretty much old news! If you haven't checked out the Dane's site yet, do so by following the link on the right. The massive lens on his camera is paying dividends and although its like carrying a small child through the bush, its serving up some top pelagic action!

View east from Taffy's Rock

At the weekend I went to Ku-ring-gai NP, on the northern edge of Sydney, for a bit of a walk with Allan, Jarrod and Adelle to a spot called Taffy's Rock. Taffy was a woman from back in the day who liked to walk a bit and so the local rambling club named a rock after her. Its quite a nice rock.

North-east to Lion Island (which actually does look a bit like a lion)

There was absolutely no wildlife about and the walk entailed crashing through scratchy scrub for 14 kms but the views were lovely and, being winter, you can walk about in the sunshine without feeling utterly miserable in ridiculous heat. Very pleasant.
