[hazzard]

Hey folks,
Just got back from another brief University of Western Sydney feild trip into the Warragamba catchment area. The purpose of this trip was to track the previously tagged Lace Monitors and to check on level of activity (due to the onset of winter) and a few that appeared to be shedding on our last visit (in the hope to retrieve any dropped units).

It was a beautiful 2 days with fantastic weather conditions.

The area is littered with wild dogs and dingo packs. A short way in we came across 3 dogs hunting, just managed to grab a few snapshots of a black one. It's not uncommon to see a pack picking off an Eastern Grey. The University of Western Sydney is extensively studying these in a similar GPS tracking study.

The scenery put on a fine display and conditions were a treat for a sometimes hostile environment. Pictured is the Wollondilly river (arm of the Warragamba dam)
