National Parklands

Tower Hill National Park is located in western Victoria and encompasses the relatively recent extinct volcano which was formed approximately 7,500 years ago. This Park was declared a National Park in 1892, the first National Park within the State of Victoria. After a concerted program to re vegetate and re introduce native fauna, the park is now closer to it's natural state with an abundance of birds including magpie geese, emus and cape barren geese with all of the wildlife now protected but none surrounded by fences.

During our lunch, emus surrounded us. One of these buggers came a bit too close by sneaking up behind Hector, leaning over his shoulder and nabbing a sandwich out of his hand.  I wish we had a snapshot of that.
