Whisky Bay

After a weekend photographic workshop (and only a few hours sleep) I finally rocked up to Wilson's Prom for the first time. I had planned to walk to Oberon Bay but decided that I was too tired even for that and slept in the car in the carpark of Whisky Bay.

I awoke to a sunny morning and the sound of lots of birds. It was only a short walk down to the beach and today it was all mine. Despite all of the beautiful scenery I wasn't really in the mood for taking lots of photographs, I was just enjoying the scenery for a change in this very peaceful setting.

Whisky Bay, like most at Wilson's Prom, has a wide, flat with marvelous granite boulders at either end. This is the stuff postcards are made of and just around the corner is another postcard......

The birds have become quite accustomed to humans and even the normally shy superb blue wrens would dart around the table while I was eating, one even daring to sit on my shoulder and head. While I had put out some crumbs for them, they had obviously developed a taste for good food and when it came to desert (chocolate teddy bear biscuits and coconut cream, I almost had to fight them off.

I dawdled through breakfast (OK so it was brunch but I did get up early to take a few photos) and watched groups of people drive up, walk to the beach, return 10 - 15 minutes later and drive off to the next location.
