Eagle Head Rock (though we think Turtle Head)!
What a day!
Driving through the Royal National Park and what do we see in front of our eyes but a six foot Diamond Python!
Kay and I were glad that we were in our car admiring this stunning looking creature (only later did we find out it was harmless and good for keeping the local mice population down). There is a picture below, though not taken by us.
So, the walk starts at Wattamolla and goes 3.5k south along the headland, travelling up and down the headland and inland of the coast, (gotta admit one of the most stunning walks Kay and I have done).
Apart from the natural beauty of the landscape, we saw a Nankeen Kestrel, lots of New Holland Honey Eaters and an Echidna, which is in between a Hedgehog and a Porcupine, but is endemic to Australia.
The New South Wales Tourist Bureau use the picture of Eagle Head Rock in their tourist brochure. However, I reckon Kay takes better pictures.
There are also pictures of Bull Ants as well as some fine scenic pictures.
I almost think it is worth working one day of the weekend because walking on Mondays is so peaceful.
Hope you enjoy looking at the pictures (please click on them if you wish to increase their size).

What a load of scary creatures, especially bottom right! Only joking.
