Australian Fur Seals routinely bask in the sun on the Goolwa Barrages. In season, the Great Cormorants come in to the rookery there, and every kind of Grebe can be seen fishing in the quiet lee-side of the barrage. Several kinds of Terns, Sandpipers, Dotterels, Spoonbills, and the Pacific Gulls frequent these waters, on the skirts of Coorong National Park, along with Pelicans, Swans, and the shorebirds.

Wishing for waterfalls to be running as summer ends...
Ingalalla Falls |

The season has officially outstayed its welcome, and as we begin to yearn for the coolness and rain of autumn and winter, here's a little "sympathetic magic" ... waterfalls, because I'm wishing for rain as Australia simmers and burns through the Long Dry. All these images were, of course, captured in either autumn or winter.
