Midwest-Goldfields-Wheatbelt trundle-September 2024

 Hi everyone, I hope you and yours have been doing well during the time I have been away on my little blogging break. We got back home late last week, and I seem to have a mountain of things to catch up on. You know - life keeps going on whether you are home or not. 

We had a fabulous few weeks away exploring some places new to us, and others we haven't been to in a while. Our trip took us up through the midwest enjoying the Western Australian wildflower season, then north to a station stay at Wooleen Station in what they call the Rangelands, then across to the goldfields area, and through the far north eastern wheatbelt. In fact 3,588 kilometres during the three weeks of our trip. 

I will come back with more to share over the coming weeks, but for now a little look - there was history, walking tracks, bush camping, birds, exotic wildflowers, gorgeous sunsets, outback toilets (or as my blogging friend says - loos with views), rocky outcrops and breakaways, and carpets of wildflowers. 

Budgerigars - commonly known as Budgies. So wonderful to be able to sit under a tree and observe them in the wild. This was the first time I have ever been this close to them in the wild. So special. 


From all reports across Western Australia it has been an amazing wildflower season. These are white pom-poms with yellow everlastings in the background. 


Let me catch up on life - can we ever really do that? - and I will be back to share more. 

Did I mention wild orchids? This is one of the sun orchids. 


Thank you so much for stopping by. I value your comments and look forward to hearing from you. I will try to visit your blogs in return. Have a wonderful week.

Little blogging break

 HI everyone - I am taking a little blogging break.

Back soon! Until then stay well and safe. 

It's been cold and wet. This is just a little play with my 100mm macro lens between the showers.
