1 PM
Walk - Park (Boomerang Park) 2:00:00 [1] 4.0 km (30:00 / km)
Distance a guess.
2 hrs walking around Boomerang Park with rockman discussing my selected control sites for Park-O in 2 weeks.
Some extra map detail to be included at a few of the controls to make navigation easier.
Some changes to some controls and the sequence between controls.
Council had taken a tractor through some of the previously semi-cleared areas so it was now more open than last week!
Mosquitos were prolific and didn't care at all about the protective sprays that rockman and I applied!

Gardening - Track Maintenance (Part 1) 30:00 [3]
Went over to downhill downhill Neighbour (who I hadn't talked to in 2 weeks since my proposal to clear his back boundary) and asked again about my request to do clearing of the back boundary.
He had looked at what I had done on downhill Neighbours and therefore agreed for me to do the same.
7:30 pm - 8:00 pm
I went down for a "look" which turned into a working bee in the fading daylight pushing over paperbarks using brute force and body weight.
I found in a hollow stump an orange fuzzy creature. After taking lots of flash photos it decided to rapidly exit the stump and run up a tree. After googling orange phascogale (a protected creature supposedly in our area) and orange possum it looks like it is a juvenile possum as (a) it was pretty skinny almost like a weasel (b) phascogales have fuzzy tails.
