Gubara/Yegge | Cooler But Still Humid Season

FF
Just Another longish walk at Gubara. High humidity and threatening rainstorms kept me on the move. I was very glad the mozzies did their vampire act and disappeared with the rising sun. Many small plants were flowering but not the trees. I wonder when the burning off will start? The day’s walk failed to locate the Hawk Moth caterpillar I was looking for, but it’s not the first time I have wandered around the bush looking for something I thought should be there.
