A Whole Day of Science in the SUN!

I spent Wednesday 3rd November with Mr Lancaster and Mr Swan out and about around Dunsborough. We did some work on sustainability and have discussed making some links between the UK and Australia. Then I was taken to see Science in the Natural environment around here - I saw a granite outcrop with a great view of Geographe Bay, walked through an ash covered bush area to reach some limestone caves, found a blue tongued bobtail and swam on a natural limestone reef at Yallingup. All in all a great day!



Granite outcrop - not even many Australians know about this area!

Walking through a controlled burn area. The ash on the ground was quite hot and at the top of the hill apparently a bush fire was burning. If you look closely you can see me getting scared by a tree branch!



Yallingup - we did some swimming to look at the natural reef. The reef creates great surf and makes the beach really popular, although this picture makes it look like i'm all alone in the Indian Ocean!

Limestone caves - nice and cool out of the blazing sun!

Blue tongued bobtail - a native Aussie Species. We found him in the toilets so were
 returning him to the sun to soak up some rays and warm up!
