Day twenty seven

Macey is lending us her car (VW Tiguan) to do the Great Ocean Road trip so we went for a test drive today to the Dandelion Mountain Range (actually they are called the Dandelong Mountains but where’s the fun in that?)
Autumn has arrived here so the colours were all around. 




Although the Park was extremely busy (Anzac Day is a public holiday) there was still wildlife around. 
This wallaby was enjoying something deep in the bushes.



And this is why it is called a Lyrebird. 


We have left our bird identification book back in Sydney so I can’t tell you what these are....


(OK I have just Googled it - Crimson Rosella.)

Then back to Melbourne, via a bakery where we had quiche and salad, to prepare for the next big adventure.
