It was time to head home after a great time away exploring the area, Deb and I headed out for our last morning walk along the beach, this time on the other side of the peninsular, parking at the Surf Club where we walked along the beach down past Lake Wollumboola- which had a sea berm separating it from the ocean.
As we walked towards the lake we could see this large black blob, we were trying to figure out what it was. As we got closer we realised it was black swans, there were hundreds of them, probably a thousand or so.
They scattered and swam out into the lake as we came closer so we stayed away as we returned as they were all back in place. Turns out the lake is an important east coast drought refuge for them and they graze on the algae and sea grasses. It was quite the sight, made our morning.

Past the wind turbines on Lake George before arriving back in Canberra- another great Tuesday Girls adventure.
