BBQ

The annual Nats Club BBQ was back at Herdsman's Lake Wildlife Centre after its renovation. Everyone is getting older and not necessarily wiser, but they just keep going. We claimed a spot out front, where the lake stretches out and the waterbirds drift past:

Enjoying a drink before the BBQ

A moorhen with its big feet wanted to join in

View along the lake as the sun went down

Time for the traditional stroll along the boardwalk

The path wanders through the paperbark trees

Life in the shallows

At the BBQ, I cooked some meatballs which are very forgiving. Someone else was cooking prime pieces of fillet steak; she asked my advice but its several years since I bought such an expensive cut of meat!
