Mullens Creek has not got a big flow of fresh water in it (unless there is heavy rainfall!). When the tide is out down at the bay the creek is nothing but a series of deep pools in between sandy stretches. These photos were taken the other morning at low tide from the boat ramp. This is looking east out to the bay. The sun was still not high in the sky and shows a bright patch at the top of the photo as well as the silver sparkles on the water.
This is looking upstream along one of the channels. There was a White-faced Heron on the closest sand bank and an egret further upstream.
The same view but at high tide. This was taken a few years ago with a little 'point and shoot' camera.
That looks like such a beautiful area, great shots.
ReplyDeleteI love the image of the clouds reflecting in the water. Water is never boring. I also looked through your last posts with the birds photographs - incredible!
ReplyDeletelove the 'diamonds' on the water in the first shot. beautiful.
ReplyDeleteA lovely spot to enjoy nature's beauty.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment on the rice field. Monday my other blog http://zettsett.blogspot.com/

Hi Mick
ReplyDeleteIt looks very peaceful in the early morning.
Presumably it can look different in other weather conditions, and higher tides.
I love Mangroves, for some reason, even though they are close to being an "alien life form".
Regards
Denis
Beautiful pictures of the creek :)
