Autumn is rather special for those of us who like looking carefully into the world of plants. It's the peak time for banksias and who knows else what might be around! It is also the time for honeyeater migration and, yes, some large groups of Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoos! And why not go into nature on a Sunday! It is also good for the soul. Bring your camera and be prepared to "walk slow": or walk in a way that takes it in!
