Summer morning, Palm Beach
Paperbarks and palms, beachfront garden, Palm BeachThe council empties the Whale Beach pool every Friday, so I swam at Palm Beach this morning. It was a beautiful morning with the sunlight just starting to light up the beach.
On the walk back home, however, I encountered yet another rabbit. In this last week, a rabbit every day, and yesterday two. Apparently the council can do virtually nothing. Poison is out, for fear of killing the bandicoots (and the likely outrage at the killing of domestic animals).
Sadly, when they released the calicivirus, domestic rabbits were able to be vaccinated against it. So now we have the prospect of erosion, loss of native vegetation, and ultimately loss of cliffs, thanks. (The bloody rabbits spoil each beautiful day..)
